An excellent example of a fancy’ Tanzanite’ in a medium orange hue with a desirable pinkish modifier. Gem Zoisite comes in a full spectrum of colors, from pure blues to rich yellows and greens. Yellows are generally the most plentiful (relatively speaking of course), while pink is surely the scarcest. Great, 1+ carat size and very nicely cut to all the correct angles. The gem is clean, there is one small exposed cavity (a ‘natural’ on a diamond) on the pavilion, quite difficult to see face-up. Fine German cutting on this one.
