An intriguing one off gem from the area around Shigar. Otherwise entirely clean, the gem contains a veritable nest of Byssolite fibers (typically an amphibole mineral) that swirl and reflect throughout the entire stone. Nicely cut and a fine size to appreciate the effect of the Byssolite. Endlessly fascinating, one of the more interesting inclusion gems we have seen of late.
