Natural Andelusite Diamond 925SS Necklace

Unique Andalusite (.98ct, VS, Spain) hand set in 925 Sterling silver, accented with natural White Diamonds(.03ctw,VS,Canada), on a sterling silver chain. This gem’s main claim to fame is its extraordinary pleochroism. When cutting strongly pleochroic gemstones (iolite, tanzanite, kunzite, etc.), lapidaries typically try to minimize the pleochroism and maximize the single most attractive color. Interestingly, andalusite is the opposite, as all the colors are visible in different directions.
