Stunning 8.96ct VS grade golden Ametrine!

Ametrines are interesting gemstones. They are a mix of amethyst and citrine which happens when the crystal is exposed to extreme heat during formation, turning the violet amethyst a golden hue. The ametrine itself is found in bands of crystals around the edges of this unique geological heating between the citrine and amethyst. This examples intense color comes from a classic citrine yellow influenced by a well blended violet undertone, and you can also see touches of violet on its underside in the video. This results in a rich golden hue that presents a strong orange presence and gives it an almost imperial color palette! It is simply gorgeous! But its not just the color, its the size that makes this gemstone stand out. Weighing 8.96 carats and coming in at 14mm x 14mm x 6.6mm, this is a large ametrine! And look at the cut! You have a classic round cut with a low domed profile, and underneath you have a tightly faceted basket cut. The combination of all of these overlapping facets creates a nonstop display of both liquid and glittering flashing. And every one of these facets was polished to perfection giving every cut a twinkling life of its own. And every bit of color and sparkle this ametrine produces is captured with pristine VS clarity. Don't miss this incredible piece! Sourced from Bolivia. UNTREATED!!!
