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 to cut the bicolor gemstones, This particular gem is a unique, one-of-a-kind, attractive, well cut, 60/40 purple/yellow bicolor, virtually eye clean, "Quantum Concave Emerald" cut gemstone set into a beautiful Sterling Silver pendant. This gem is truly beautiful 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 wonderful piece of unique, naturally occuring gemstone jewelry. Please note that this pendant comes with a FREE 18 inch Sterling Silver chain!
