DESCRIPTION:

Rare lot of Select Grassy Green to Honey colored Epidote Faceting Rough from the Northern Areas of Pakistan. These are three select stones with each capable of cutting an eye-clean or better finished stone with a little hard work and some grinding. Please note that Epidote is a Trichroic stone and therefore this is different colors down different angles with the dominant  sides being Green and Honey colored. This can be oriented to enhance whichever color you prefer. These are not small pieces and it is rare to get Epidote from Pakistan that is not excessively Dark. All three of this are nice chunky crystal sections and we are confident that you will get average to above average yield on all three of these stones. We rarely get Epidote of this quality by us and this is a great deal for the right person so don't miss out! How can you lose out at $2.00 per carat for 11.5+ carat averaging stones???

COOL FACTS:
  1. Pakistan has been known to produce Epidote on a sporadic basis. Most Pakistani Epidote from Pakistan is available in long crystal sections and crystal and runs an Olive Green to a Yellowish Green. There have been some cases where Epidote has been mistaken for Zoisite coming from the region and vice versa. Though this is rare it does occasionally happen.
