Item Description

This is a cut gem veszelyite! Find another! This unusually large, shield cut gem was faceted by master gem artist, Jay Medici. This species is rare enough as collector-grade crystals and virtually unheard of as finished gems. This stone is 0.67 carats, and must be among the largest possible or known. It would have come from a crystal from the famous finds of the mid 1980s. Nothing like those has been found since.
