HERE IS A NICE OVAL SHAPED FACETED COLOR CHANGE GARNET. THIS HAS VISIBLEINCLUSIONS ON ONE END THAT ARE MORE OR LESSVISIBLE WITH THE NAKED EYE. WHAT IT LACKS IN CLARITY, FAIRLY CLEAN EXCEPT THE ONE END, IT HAS A VERY GOOD COLOR CHANGE. I WILL LIST IT VERY REASONABLY FOR A FEW MONTHS AND IF NOT SOLD WILL HAVE RE CUT TO GET SI OR BETTER GEM, YOU CAN NOT GET THIS TYPE IN THE ROUGH FOR WHAT I AM LISTING FOR. IT IS AN AFRICAN STONE THAT IS A MEDIUM DARK PURPLISH RED COLOR IN INCANDESCENT LIGHT TO A SLIGHT GREENISH BLUE STRAW YELLOWISH COLOR IN NATURAL OR FLORESCENT LIGHT, THE WAVE LENGTH OF THE LIGHT SOURCE CREATES THE PHENOMENA. IF DONE IN A MIXED LIGHT SITUATION YOU WILL NOT SEE THE CHANGE AS WELL. IT IS LARGE FOR COLOR CHANGE AND IS GOOD QUALITY AND A NICE COLLECTIBLE AS WELL A UNUSAL GEM.
