Showcasing a razor-sharp 50/50 color split between rich regal purple and warm golden honey, this impressive 24.05 Carat Natural Ametrine brings dramatic dual-tone brilliance to your workbench. Precision-cut into a bold 20 x 13 mm Emerald shape with a generous 11.5 mm depth, this gem offers bench goldsmiths and custom studio designers a grand 20x13mm rectangular footprint ideal for luxury cocktail rings and high-end statement pendants.
