This is a very unusual stone from an historic location. Because of strong dichroism, this gem shows blue flashes over a light yellowish-green base color; a truly unusual color effect. The Pendeloque cut is simply an eloganted pear shape. This particular stone has not been heat treated. Apatite is a soft material that requires the skill of an expert metalsmith to be set without damage. This stone would be a very special addition to a gem collection.
