Something with an almost unheard of level of obscurity and rarity that we have only offered it once before - and even then, the stone was cut from the same piece of rough. This unusual color variety (a sort of mauve hue) of the very rare gem material Dumortierite is documented as an occasional find in the area around Mogok. Almost always these have a series of coarse needles that is capable of producing chatoyancy - giving us the added rarity of a true cat’s eye Dumortierite. A special effect, in a special color, of a special species.
