Gemstone: Quartz - 321.80 Cts.
Sri Lanka (Ceylon)

Weighing an impressive 321.80 carats, this stunning Rock Crystal gemstone, the colorless variety of Quartz, is eye-catching, to say the least. Originating from mineral-rich Sri Lanka (Ceylon), the expansive stone exhibits a classic oval shape with intricate, fancy, brilliant faceting. The carefully arranged artistic facets create an elegant, floral-inspired motif that enhances both dimensionality and light performance. Expertly cut and faceted, this substantial gem is in overall very good condition, with a few very minor nicks along the girdle. Subtle natural inclusions are faintly visible upon close inspection, lending character and depth without detracting from its transparency. This stunning gem would make an excellent addition to any collection or simply as an attractive paperweight. The combination of desirable locality, notable size, clarity, and artistic faceting distinguishes this Rock Crystal Quartz as a superb specimen.
Measurements: 47.55 x 43.79 x 29.44 mm, 321.80 cts.
