It is such a pleasure to be able to occasionally offer museum grade examples of some of the rare stone species. From a very old collection formed directly in Brazil comes a massive example of gem Amblygonite. Entirely clean and beautifully cut, this one simply couldn’t be any finer. The color is a very light greenish-yellow and, with its size, the gem is extrememly impressive in-hand.
Amblygonite forms a series with Montebrasite, and indeed the accompanying GIA report states ‘a member of the Amblygonite-Montebrasite series’ as would be expected. We actually had an informal Raman done at a trade show and the match was almost perfect for the Amblygonite spectra. Outstanding gem.
