A rare quality from a scarce locality. Most of these are Moroccan and they are almost always fractured or rather light in color in smaller sizes. A truly fine, 1+ carat Spanish stone with exceptional color is now quite the rarity. Excellent cutting and polish as well. Interestingly, the face-up color comes from a transverse color zone that you can only see from the pavilion; excellent example of cutting orientation. Almost unattainable at this quality level.
