Ametrine (Cut by Allyce Ruhl)

Item Description

This is a unique variety of Quartz from the finest occurrence in the world. Ametrine is a naturally occurring purple and yellow bi-color variety that is formed by a unique twin law ("Brazil Law Twinning") where two separate individually colored crystals are intergrown to form an alternating "radiation" pattern of purple and yellow triangles when viewed down the c axis. The two colors are oriented properly to cut the beautiful bicolor gemstones, This particular gem is a unique, one-of-a-kind, custom-cut, superb, 60/40 purple/yellow bicolor, nearly eye clean "Fiery Star Hexagon" cut gemstone. The stone is very attractive in person, and the custom cutting makes it even more attractive. This stone was cut by Allyce Kosnar of www.kosnargemco.com in December of 2012. A truly beautiful stone and when Ametrine is well cut, it looks amazing. It has come to my attention that the mine is no longer in production of this material and the market has quickly "dried up". Don't miss this opportunity to own a unique, colorful, naturally occuring gemstone.
