An enchanting stone that we sourced from an excellent mineral dealer source of ours. The stone is fairly large for this material, which is primarily pyrope-spessartite and overlaps a bit with the color range for ‘Malaya’ stones. The gem has a very noticeable and distinct color change, becoming very strongly red-purple with incandescent light. Very finely cut and with just two small well hidden veils. Fine example at a competitive cost.
