11.40 Carat Natural Amethyst VVS A Oval Cut from Brazil
- Description
This substantial 11.40 carat natural Amethyst displays a Soft Lavender colour with brighter violet flashes around its broad oval outline. Its generous dimensions and pleasing proportions give the gemstone considerable visual presence.
Assessed as VVS clarity and A quality, the gemstone has an exceptionally clean interior and lively reflections around its outer facets. Central windowing, uneven light return and one medium chip on the pavilion at approximately 12 o’clock are the principal deductions. A pendant or brooch would provide the most conservative use, while any ring design should protect the damaged pavilion area from setting pressure and impact.

THINGS TO CONSIDER
- Central windowing substantially reduces light return and colour concentration through the middle.
- Brilliance is concentrated mainly around the perimeter rather than distributed evenly across the gemstone.
- One medium chip is present on the pavilion at approximately 12 o’clock.
- The jeweller should identify the damaged pavilion area and avoid placing direct setting pressure against it.
- Slight peripheral extinction produces small dark areas in some face-up positions.
- The Fair cut grade reflects the uneven optical performance; the pavilion chip is assessed separately as a condition issue.
IDEAL FOR
- A statement Amethyst pendant
- An impressive Amethyst brooch
- A carefully protected dress ring
- Bespoke jewellery designed around the pavilion condition
KINGFISHER RECOMMENDATION
This A-quality Amethyst represents good buying value for someone prioritising substantial size, Soft Lavender colour and VVS clarity over continuous face-up brilliance. Its oval outline, symmetry and facet workmanship support a Fair rather than Poor cut grade. The severe central windowing and one medium pavilion chip remain important deductions and are recorded separately. A pendant or brooch would make the most conservative use of the gemstone, while any ring setting should protect the damaged pavilion section and avoid direct pressure around 12 o’clock.
