Faceted oval Ametrine weighing 6.23 carats. Ametrine is a natural combination of Amethyst (purple) and Citrine (yellow)
that comes only from the Anahi Mine and if you've never seen the crystals before you might think this is manufactured somehow,
but it's not. Each color is present in the crystal 3 times, corresponding to the six sides of the quartz crystal. When faceted they make
beautiful and unusual gemstones with both purple and yellow colorplay.
