A unique Tucson find, this was being sold as bi-color, though bi-clarity may be more apt. Cut from a single crystal that featured a translucent milky zone abruptly giving way to clean, gem quality Heliodor. Very few to be had and we rather liked the effect, so while we may never see many more, this does seem like ‘our kind of thing’. All told, a top quality example with a perfect split and great color in a manageable size.
