14.20ct Natural Orange Sphalerite | Precision Cut | Portugal
Extraordinary 14.20ct Natural Orange Sphalerite from Portugal
Step into a world of unparalleled fire with this massive 14.20ct Natural Sphalerite. Known among connoisseurs as one of the most brilliant gemstones in existence, Sphalerite possesses a refractive index and dispersion that dwarfs even the finest diamonds. This particular specimen, sourced from the renowned mines of Portugal, represents the peak of its species.
Precision Cutting & Exceptional Fire
Because Sphalerite is a soft stone, achieving a Precision Cut on a 14-carat crystal is a feat of master lapidary work. This cut has been specifically engineered to harness the stone's high dispersion, breaking light into a vivid "fire" of oranges and reds. Despite its impressive size, the stone remains Eye Clean, a rarity for a mineral that is often included.
A Masterpiece for Collectors
While too soft for everyday ring wear, this Sphalerite is the ultimate "trophy" stone for a serious collector or a dedicated pendant piece. Its saturated Orange hue glows with an internal warmth that is only found in the finest Portuguese material.
