Simply a gorgeous stone - cutting, color and clarity are all just what you would hope. Special mention of course is the color, a deep and saturated color that is not common and very difficult to source in unheated gems; simply wonderful. Nicely cut with a great polish and always a popular shape. There are few undisturbed included crystals visible under 10x - a nice visual indication that hte stone is unheated. Nothing to detract here!
