GIA Certified 1.66 Cts AAA Grade Green Rare Rare Kornerupine (Pismatine)

About the Item

Kornerupine derives its name from Danish geologist Andreas Nikolaus Kornerup, who first identified it in Greenland in 1884. While initially discovered in Greenland, kornerupine is more commonly found in gem-bearing pegmatites and metamorphic rocks in other regions. Its unique color variations are caused by different trace elements present during its formation, such as iron, chromium, and manganese. Gem-quality kornerupine is relatively rare, often occurring in small sizes, which adds to its exclusivity. Its beauty lies in its subtle yet captivating hues and its ability to exhibit pleochroism, displaying different colors depending on the angle of observation. Despite its rarity, kornerupine is appreciated by gem enthusiasts and collectors for its striking appearance and distinctive character. Its understated elegance and limited availability make it a gemstone treasured by those seeking something truly exceptional and unique.
