Description
Natural aquamarine weighing 78.95ct.
The aquamarine’s color is a soft Lagoon Blue, very much like the hue of top quality paraiba tourmalines.
Its color is consistent indoors and outdoors, the stone feels surreal.
The rectangular cut delivers amazing lustre even where the step cut is considered to have fewer facets.
While color is owed entirely to its saturated hue, the stone’s thorough transparency is magnified by its sharp cut.
The stone displays a visual geometry.
It is not of the Santa Maria deeper blue, but it is a splendid cut and very fiery aquamarine with an under-valued status.
Most aquamarine gems and crystals are heated, this is certified unheated.
Unheated aquamarines tend to be lighter in color, but this one is quite intense.
All photos are taken in natural light, no additional lamp is used.
The stone measures 34 x 22 x 18 mm.
