Yet its true uniqueness is only revealed in the light: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe material possesses a fascinating translucency and shows the depth characteristic of the highly coveted \"gel\" quality sugilite. When backlit, the stone literally begins to glow – from delicate lavender and light violet to intense purple zones and deeply saturated violet inclusions. Differing transparent areas, cloudy structures, and stronger color concentrations form a unique natural pattern. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe entire effect of the piece changes depending on the light incidence. In normal light, the donut appears soft, intensely violet, and has an almost painterly structure. However, when held against a strong light source, semi-transparent areas and an extraordinary inner play of color are revealed, lending the stone an almost luminous, three-dimensional depth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is precisely this combination of size, weight, color, and translucency that makes this specimen an exceptional piece for discerning sugilite collectors. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSugilite is among the most coveted purple collector minerals in the world. Particularly intensely colored yet translucent material is available only in very limited quantities and is often referred to by collectors as \"gel sugilite.\" Large, contiguous pieces with such pronounced transparent to semi-transparent areas are correspondingly exceptional. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe donut has been ground and polished to a very high standard. The large, smooth surface makes it possible to observe the natural structure and the different violet color zones across almost the entire piece. At the same time, sufficient material thickness is retained to make the extraordinary depth of the sugilite visible. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn object that goes far beyond ordinary gemstone jewelry. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis piece is suitable both as a spectacular centerpiece for an extraordinary jewelry creation and – perhaps most especially – as an independent collector's and exhibition object. In a high-quality mineral or gemstone collection, a sugilite of this size and appearance can form a true focal point. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDETAILS: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Mineral: natural sugilite \u003cbr\u003e• Quality: rare translucent \/ so-called \"gel\" quality \u003cbr\u003e• Shape: large donut \/ Pi disc \u003cbr\u003e• Weight: approx. 154 ct \u003cbr\u003e• Diameter: approx. 50 mm \u003cbr\u003e• Thickness: approx. 8 mm \u003cbr\u003e• Color: lavender, violet, purple to intense dark violet \u003cbr\u003e• Special features: clearly translucent areas and intense natural color zoning \u003cbr\u003e• Surface: high-quality polished \u003cbr\u003e• One-of-a-kind: Yes \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a gemstone of this size, its true beauty can only be partially captured in photographs.
