Luxurious 1.88ct Swat Valley emerald

What do you love about Pink diaspore? I love that it's a relatively unheard of stone. While it might look similar to stones like Amythist, purple sapphire, spinel or perhaps even morganite, it is the little inclusions that run through the stone, giving each its own unique fingerprint. The stone also exhibits color change like its Turkish cousin Zultanite. Where Zultanite changes from brown to green, this has a subtle lavender to pink change in bright sunlight. It was first brought to market in Peshawar Pakistan after being discovered in neighboring Afghanistan. The miners and people who literally risk their lives to bring a few handfuls of this material across the border into Pakistan are the true heroes here. One handful of stones can feed a family for a year. This particular stone measures 10.8x6.9mm and weighs 3.68ct. It's a good size for either a ring or a pendant.

Unmistakable in color, this dark green natural emerald from Swat Valley Pakistan has everything you could want. Minimal oil treatment and beautiful "jardin" this stone would look amazing in a ring or pendant. Swat emerald has been mined for over 2000 years, with stones identified as from this area found in Roman archeological digs in France. It is widely considered to be some of the finest color emerald available. This particular stone is 1.40ct and measures 7.5x5.8mm.

Totally untreated with beautiful tube inclusions throughout. This particular stone is beautifully cut and weighs 2.17ct and measures 10.6x5.6mm. This stone would be ideal in a ring or a pendant.
