Completely untreated and free from thermal enhancement, this exceptional collector's gem is accompanied by a premier identification report from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) confirming its natural origin and unheated status. Its striking dome and elongated silhouette make it an extraordinary centerpiece for a high-jewelry statement ring, pendant, or bespoke signet.
