Item Description

Gaspeite is a somewhat rare carbonate named after the Gaspe Peninsula in Canada. The material is virtually always opaque, and is this is one of the few faceted stones of this material that I've seen. The color of Gaspeite is a very attractive light green, and this stone is no exception. The gem is opaque with an "Oval Cabochon" cut, but for rare stone collectors, this would make a great addition to any rare stone collection, especially considering that it has a very nice color.
