A highly unusual presentation of gemmy Calcite. While we sometimes she stones that have a bit of light haziness, we have never seen this feature in combination with this peculiar green-yellow bodycolor. Absolutely looks like a visual match for a faceted Prehnite, and quite unusual as such. A one-off oddity. a very distinct and singular find in N. Sapat comes this remarkably light toned gem Peridot. The color looks all the world like a Merelani Mint Garnet - unquestionably the lightest tone we have ever seen, even when the stones of Norway are considered. Even the connoisseur of Peridot will be surprised with one of these. Great cutting and extremely bright.
