Comments:
This vanadium kornerupine is SUPER clean for kornerupine. There's some very sparse needle type inclusions or faint silk under magnification, but it is clean to the un-aided eye.
The color is really stupendous, as well. It's a shimmering, vibrant leaf color, visible from a great distance. As always, a well cut, well proportioned emerald cut projects a wonderful geometric brilliance.
This kornerupine is a perfect size for any project with a few medium stones. It would also stand on it's own as a solitaire, or a stacker ring, or a basket pendant.
