Everything about this Sphalerite feels classic, especially the elegant way it holds its signature Fire Orange tone. This gemstone works perfectly when clarity and steady color are non-negotiable. With 17.25 carats and a Round cut, this Sphalerite displays Fire Orange with VS - SI clarity, sourced from Spain, with carefully maintained symmetry throughout the gemstone. Untreated, the stone reflects authentic geological formation. You do not need to be an expert to see that this one is different.
Fine transparent faceted sphalerite in meaningful sizes is uncommon in the market at any price point. The cutting challenges mean that even where rough is available, many cutters lack the specific experience to produce well-faceted finished stones. Learn more about Sphalerite.
