A rare and fascinating example of gemmy faceted Willemite from the classic US source at Franklin, New Jersey. The very finely cut gem has large areas of yellow gem grade material together with the reddish needle like inclusions which are quite diagnostic. These are typically quite a bit smaller as the gemmy areas tend to be minute. As you might expect, the longwave UV fluorescence is very impressive. A fine rarity.
