This unique piece has been fantasy cut and hand carved on the pavilion to create the 3 ray star pattern with spherical “bubble” shapes. The dark green color has an Earthy feel to it that is quite attractive. The piece has nice clarity and displays the carving work well. The bubbles reflect off on the pavilion facets giving the perimeter of the stone a replicated pattern. This gem will make a one of a kind piece of jewelry! In a ring the bubbles will reflect and transition with the light, making the stone look like it’s moving. This piece was created by Brett Kosnar at Kosnar Gem Co., during August 2019. Enjoy!
