Description
Gemstone: Amethyst - 47.09 Cts.Presumed Brazil
24.45 x 20.49 x 16.87 mm
Saturated reddish-purple hues dominate this 47.09-carat Amethyst. The oval mixed cut delivers crisp symmetry, and strong internal reflections, creating a vivid play of brilliance across the crown. Exceptional clarity supports an uninterrupted glow, allowing the rich tone and medium-strong saturation to remain the visual focus. Faceting enhances depth through the center while maintaining a balanced outline suitable for either mounting or curated display. This impressive gemstone stands as a substantial and beautifully executed representation of classic Amethyst color.
Estimate: $400 - up.
