Item Description
Some of the best color Sphalerite in the world comes from Spain. I am always amazed at this material, because it is one of the few transparent sulfides in the world. This stone is a very impressive piece for the material. This stone has great dispersion, excellent color, good size and beautiful cutting. The color of the stone is a fantastic golden yellow hue with slight orange color zones, and when it is rotated in the light, there are some beautiful green flashes that dance throughout the gem. There are very very slight inclusions, but honestly, it is very hard to obtain totally eye clean stones of this material. The cut on the stone is a "Trillion". Make sure to take advantage of this opportunity to own a good sized, beautiful rare collector stone. Do not miss out on this superb, attractive, collector quality gem.
