A rather remarkable Munsteiner outline with a dynamic and quite unique design. Relatively large and with a perfect (yes, in this case, we will use that word) polish, this gem is certainly calling out for a custom piece. There is an unusual level of work on the undercarving for a stone of this size - done to perfectly to frame the signature undercarved ‘bubble’. We aren’t sure the inspiration here, perhaps this was a small Amethyst remnant, or a slightly lighter piece of rough - clearly the carver felt free from any restraint or obligation. Regardless, the design is superb and we simply couldn’t resist this one. With complete certificate from Atelier Munsteiner.
