18.45 Carat Natural Amethyst VVS A+ Good Oval Cut from Brazil
- Description
This substantial 18.45 carat natural Amethyst displays a Medium Purple colour with vivid violet and occasional pink-purple flashes through movement. Its deep oval outline and distinctive hexagonal honeycomb crown facets create an unusual architectural appearance with considerable visual presence.
Assessed as VVS clarity and A+ quality, the gemstone has an exceptionally clean interior and no confirmed chip, fracture or significant abrasion. It’s very deep proportions, good pavilion cutting and moderate areas of extinction produce uneven light return and require considerable setting depth. A statement pendant, brooch or specially engineered bespoke design would make particularly effective use of its size and distinctive fantasy cutting.

KINGFISHER RECOMMENDATION
This A+ Amethyst is recommended for someone seeking a substantial, individually cut gemstone with Medium Purple colour, VVS clarity and an unusual architectural presentation. The hexagonal honeycomb facets create a recognisable pattern that distinguishes it from a conventional oval brilliant cut.
Its exceptional depth, Good pavilion finish, moderate extinction and uneven light return are important deductions. A pendant or brooch would accommodate the depth most effectively. If selected for a ring, the design will require a tall, secure basket with adequate protection around the complete girdle.
