A superb color for this species, we only have a seen a few stones of this gorgeous color variety from the area around Mogok. Kornerupine is usually considerably less saturated or marred by dark modifiers - even the unusual Tanzanian material tends to have a much lighter tone than this gem. Think the color of Chrome Tourmaline for comparison. From the precious few stones that we have been offered this year this is unquestionable the largest and cleanest; they are typically moderately to highly included. Just a few low relief crystals in this one and a great precision cut. Great gem for the connoisseur of this scarce species.
