Ruby / Zoisite

Item Description

This is very attractive and well known material, but rarely does one find a piece like this. These Ruby / Zoisite specimens were found in Tanzania in 1954 (sometimes referred to as "Anyolite" after the Massai word for green), and are very popular among collectors either as cabochons or for carvings. This piece is a beautiful "Pear Cabochon" cut stone of Ruby / Zoisite, and is one of the more attractive pieces of Ruby / Zoisite that we have offered in the auctions recently. Don't miss out on this one as it is the only one we have to offer right now.
