Awesome Rare Deep Purple NATURAL Cat's Eye Scapolite Rough Lot from China. There really isn't too much of this produced in nature and we were lucky enough to get this parcel at a great price! The color on this isn't a Dark Purple but that Perfect Purple for the most part. Most of the Purple Scapolite you are likely to encounter in the market is treated; however, even that is rare these days. Some of this material is EXTREMELY clean; however, the bulk of it has some degree of Chatoyancy and is ideally suited for cabbing. The lot is running roughly 25% High to Top Facet Grade where the chatoyancy is weak enough to not overpower a faceted stone. Natural Purple Scapolite is generally much smaller in size than Yellow Scapolite commonly available from Tanzania. We were lucky to procure a large parcel of this material and most of it has already sold directly. We have SEVERELY discounted this and priced it to sell so do NOT let this go by! |
