Not every inclusion reduces value. In fine Diaspore, certain natural features can add individuality and character that no flawless stone can replicate. In this example, the natural needle has been deliberately preserved during cutting, becoming part of the gemstone's identity rather than something removed or hidden.
At 7.08 carats and measuring 11.91 x 11.02 x 6.25 mm, this cushion-cut Diaspore from Turkey displays a Honey Green to Salmon Brown color change with VS clarity. The master cutting balances brightness, color performance, and the visibility of the natural needle, allowing all three to coexist harmoniously within the same gemstone. Combined with its attractive size and exceptional luster, the result is a stone that remains engaging long after the first impression.
The appeal of Diaspore lies in transformation, and this gemstone rewards observation under different lighting conditions. The natural needle serves as a reminder of the crystal's origin, adding character and distinction to an already uncommon stone.
