1.01 carat lovely traditional octahedral raw diamond
Type of Stone: Diamond
Shape: Octahedron
Carats: 1.01
Measurements: 5.49x4.23x4.87mm
Color: Near Colorless, D/E
Description: Lovely shaped traditional octahedron with excellent angles and terminations. This one I think is particularly cool because in each "window" you have two concentric triangles, within the triangle that frames, the surface is shiny, while in the center triangle, the surface is slightly matte. The effect is a shiny frame on each triangular surface with a sparkly inner triangle. It's lovely and carries the light amazingly. The center is free from any dark inclusions.
Source: DTC (the Diamond Trading Company), we are quite certain it is from South Africa but new provenance claim rules from the DTC require that we state it is from Namibia, South Africa, Botswana or Canada
Certifications: This stone was traded between borders completely in keeping with the Kimberley Process and is therefore conflict-free and does not finance violence by rebel groups seeking to undermine legitimate governments anywhere on earth.
