Chrome Kornerupine from Tanzania, showing the unmistakable teal-green associated with chromium content. Stones of this quality are exceptionally rare, especially since the deposit that produced them has been fully depleted. Very few gem materials display this combination of color, transparency, and birefringence, and demand from collectors has pushed prices sharply higher in recent years. A scarce and prized mineral species, offered here in a precision cushion cut that highlights both brilliance and depth
