A simply stunning and essentially perfect example of this classic collector’s gem. The popularity of Benitoite has never waned and continues to increase year after year - this despite the difficulty in sourcing finer stones. The color of this gem is the absolute best you could hope for - both in hue and tone; a gorgeous medium dark violetish-blue. The gem is entirely eye clean and the cutting is a fantastic and fresh US job - as if this wasn’t rare enough in this quality, it is also a calibrated round making it doubly so.
