Impressionsist's 23.45ct Siberian Charoite

Only found in Siberia, this cabochon runs the gauntlet of violet hues, from silvery lavender to purple to true violet. It displays strong chatoyancy giving its color palette movement, and when added to its feathered growth patterns this piece looks like a moving purple version of Starry Night by Van Gogh. It measures 23.9mm x 19.5mm x 4.4mm, and is beautifully polished giving it a liquid luster. Untreated.
