Gel Sugilite with
Richterite designer gem 6/30/2016 01 - 38 x 22 x 3.4 mm - 25
carats - It's been a long time since I've cut sugilite. I
bought rough many years ago and being the hoarder that I am,
I still have a bit left. This is very high grade translucent
gel sugilite with spots of divine blue Richterite that is
even more rare than sugilite. I think this also has a small
inclusion of rare orange stichtite (sp?) on the back. This
nice sized gem has a very low dome, girdled sides and a flat
beveled back all with the typical waxy / glossy luster of
this extremely rare and beautiful material. I made a video
clip to show this stone in motion here:
