This is a classic Sri Lankan color-shifter; the hue changing from a brownish tan to a red-purple and nearly all shades in-between depending on the light source. As long as the tone is light enough (as it is here) these can be bright and intriguing stones. Completely clean and nicely cut with the added brilliance of a radiant-style pavilion. Difficult to match for the cost.
