Visit Jamie's gems-down-under Instagram page to view more of Jamie's impeccable work. A 0.45 ct zektzerite faceted in a mixed cut called "Lucciola" (left), 6mm x 4mm. Like most zektzerite it is somewhat fractured. However it is quite scintillating, very gemmy and very pink. The polish is perfect and the meet points are excellent. Another 0.45 zektzerite faceted in a slightly different square barion design called "Trattola" (center). This gem measures just under 5mm x 5mm. Although somewhat fractured it is very gemmy and very pink. On one side of the girdle there is a slight pitting from the surface of the original rough, barely visible to the naked eye. The polish is perfect and the meet points are excellent. Finally a .20 ct 4mm x 4mm zektzerite faceted in a round design called "Tensor"(right). Although it has some minor internal craziness, this stone is not fractured and is extremely gemmy and pink. Photo Copyright © 2020 Jamie Henman |
