Gemstone: Amethyst - 145.20 Cts.
Brazil

Few minerals boast a rich purple hue, with Amethyst being one of the most saturated and dazzling of the purple family, making this impressive 145.20-carat knockout gemstone highly impactful. The vibrant fantasy cut stone displays a striking violetish purple bodycolor with secondary flashes of blue, offering added visual movement and depth of color. The stone features custom faceting with brilliant facets on the crown and linear step-cut faceting along the girdle and the pavilion, with the culet cut flat, making for one dynamic gemstone. This iconic material from Brazil is eye-clean and simply gorgeous; this stately stone is in excellent condition. The cut, polish, and luster are striking, and the stone displays good brilliance. A truly stunning and stately gemstone, this Amethyst is a standout.
