Asscher Cut Chrysoberyl, Asscher Cut, Tanzania, #299

Stone : Chrysoberyl
Cut By : Doug Menadue, 2010
Item : #299
Design : Asscher Cut
Origin : Tanzania
Treatments : None
Weight : 1.1 carats
Clarity : Eye Clean
Size : 5 x 5 x 5 mm
Price : SOLD

Comments : This is something that you rarely see, a fine bright asscher cut chrysoberyl. Most chrysoberyl tends to be small and is usually cut in round or oval designs. I was lucky to get this nice blocky piece of rough that was perfect for an Asscher Cut. Chrysoberyl is in the same ballpark as sapphire in terms of hardness and brightness. This fine little gem is a nice bright yellow with slight greenish highlights. It's very dazzling in the sunlight and would make a great ring stone. A top shelf asscher cut chrysoberyl gem!



Please note that the photos show a fair amount of brown. This is a issue with my camera as I just cannot get it to process the yellow colour spectrum accurately. In real life, the gemstone has significantly less brown and more of a touch of green. It is still predominately yellow but there is a green hint about it.
