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. Classic Sri Lankan cutting, but done quite nicely with no windowing or asymmetries of any kind - a calibrated size even! A few tiny included crystals visible under 10x are a fine little confirmation of no heat for this one. One of our favorite shades of purple.
