Unlike an ordinary marquise-cut gemstone, this amethyst showcases a striking arrangement of interlocking, honeycomb-like reflections, creating the appearance of extraordinary depth and dimension. This piece has an elongated silhouette, dramatic color saturation, and intricate faceting make it an appealing centerpiece. Displays intense flashes of lavender, violet, deep grape, and royal purple hues throughout.
Photographed under varying lighting conditions to capture its beautiful purple tones and honeycomb like or geometric faceting or design.
