Another Asscher, this one''s a 3.31 ct. Amethyst from Peter Torraca!

[LaurenThePartier]

Peter cut this last weekend, and asked me if I wanted it. Since I''m starting to collect different varieties of Asscher cut gemstones, and I liked the colour of this one, I accepted and received it today. It''s 3.31 ct. and 8.95mm.

In the box.

Lauren...it''s beautiful. The lighter color really brings out the beautiful asscher cut. Now, which color is your next one?
