DESCRIPTION: |
Vibrant Lot of Electric Pinkish Purplish Red to Purplish Pink Tanzanian Rhodolite and Umbalite Garnet Alluvial Faceting Rough. OK Folks, we recently did a buy-out of old stock East African Faceting Rough in Tucson and this was part of that buy-out. The lot for the most part looks to be Rhodolite and/or Umbalite; however, there is a stone or two in the parcel that is more rightly classified as Malaya. Please note that this material looks much Pinker than the above pictures indicate. This Lot is running roughly 70%+ High to Top Facet Grade and truly is a site to behold. A few stones do have inclusions and silk; however, the lot as a whole is very clean. This is old stock material and we do NOT anticipate on getting any more in the near future. This is unusually bright material seldom available as of late at a decent price! Much of this is the material you see being sold all around at $4.00+ per carat! The lot is priced to sell so don't miss out. |
