A truly wild piece of Sphalerite faceted in an equally wild cut. Although these have becomes quite popular, as well as more common, in recent years what is now uncommon is the fine, precision quality of the cut here - great polish and a near adamantine luster. The very distinctive outline features a dramatic bit of red color zoning in the gem itself, giving it an almost eye-like appearance. Sphalerites are dazzling stones with great color and dispersion - particularly when done so well. Absolutely unique.
