RLKG10-164 - Hauyne - $ 260 Eifel Mountains, Germany thumbnail, 4.3 x 3.5 mm ; 0.22 carats
Hauyne is one of the most sought after rare gems on the market today. The material belongs to the Sodalite group, but most species in this group rarely occur in such intense color stones like Hauyne. Obviously, the color is what attracts collectors, and the scarcity of the material makes for incredibly high prices per carat. These stones are often very small, and gems over 1 carat are extremely difficult to obtain. This little gem is a beautiful royal blue color stone that is ONLY very very slightly included and has a Rectangle cut. Most of these gems have some sort of inclusions, but this has superb clarity for the material. Virtually all the facet grade Hauyne in the world comes from the Eifel Mts in Germany where is forms in basic vulcanism rocks. A very rare stone with a tremendously beautiful color worthy of any collection.
