PERFECTLY MATCHED PAIR OF PALASITE PERIDOT CUT FROM A VERY RARE FORM OF METEORITE WITH PERFECT AAA QUALITY. BOTH GEMSTONES HAVE BEEN PERFECTLY FACETED INTO PERFECTLY PROPORTIONED AND PERFECTLY MATCHED ROUND CUTS WITH PREMIUM CUT GRADES. BOTH GEMSTONES HAVE NEON LIKE GREEN WITH YELLOW UNDERTONES COLOR AND FLAWLESS EYE CLEAN CLARITY. VERY STRONG BRILLIANCE AND LUSTER. EACH MEASURES 5X5 MM AND THE PAIR HAS A COMBINED WEIGHT OF 1.14 CARATS. PALASITE PERIDOT IS CONSIDERED BY MOST GEMOLOGISTS TO BE ONE OF THE RAREST GEMSTONE SPECIES FOUND ON EARTH. IT ORIGINATES IN OUTER SPACE AND IS FOUND IN PALASITE METEORITES WHICH FALL TO EARTH. UNLIKE MOLDAVITE AND OTHER GEMSTONES CAUSED FROM METEORITE IMPACTS PALASITE PERIDOT ACTUALLY FORMS ON THE METEORITES BEFORE THEY ENTER EARTHS ATMOSPHERE. MOST PALASITE PERIDOT IS LESS THAN 0.10 CARATS AFTER FACETING BECAUSE LARGE GEM GRADE CRYSTALS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMMON. GEMSTONES OVER 1/2 CARAT ARE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AND SOME OF THE LARGEST SPECIMENS EVER CUT ONLY WEIGHT 1.8-2.5 CARATS AND ARE CONSIDERED PRICELESS. WITH THE VALUE OF PALASITE PERIDOT RANGING FROM $100-1,000 A CARAT ON THE COLORED GEMSTONE INDEX IT IS A GREAT STONE FOR RESALE AND INVESTMENT PURPOSES. IT IS VERY STABLE AND CAN BE USED IN ANY JEWELRY APPLICATION SAFELY. WE ARE ONE OF THE ONLY COMPANIES IN THE USA THAT SELLS FACETED GEM QUALITY PALASITE PERIDOT AND IT TOOK NEARLY A DECADE TO SECURE THE SOURCE WHERE WE GET IT FROM. MOST OF THE PALASITE PERIDOT WE SELL ORIGINATES FROM METEORITES FOUND ALL OVER THE WORLD AND FACETED BY A GENTLEMEN IN TUCSON ARIZONA. PALASITES METEORITES ARE A STONY IRON BASED METEORITE WITH CRYSTALS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE METEORITE. PALASITE GEMSTONES ARE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MATCH BECAUSE THEY VERY SO DRASTICALLY IN COLOR, CLARITY, COLOR DISPERSION, AND SIZE. THE VAST MAJORITY OF PALASITE GEMSTONES WEIGH UNDER 0.10 CARATS AFTER FACETING. THIS MAKES GEMSTONES LARGER THAN THAT RARE ON THEIR OWN, AND MAKES FINDING MATCHED SETS IN LARGER SIZES THAT MUCH HARDER. THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST GEMSTONE SPECIES IN THE WORLD, AND WITH A VERY STRONG DEMAND FOR PALASITE METEORITE SPECIMENS IT IS VERY HARD TO CONVINCE PEOPLE TO CUT THE METEORITES THEY HAVE INTO GEMSTONES. THIS IS WHY PALASITE RETAILS FOR HUNDREDS AND EVEN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS A CARAT. HAVING A MATCHED PAIR USUALLY ABOUT TRIPLES THE PRICE PER CARAT OF THE GEMS. HAVING MATCHING LOTS MAKE THEM MORE AND MORE VALUABLE IN A PER CARAT PRICE. THIS IS THE REASON YOU NEVER SEE TENNIS NECKLACES OR BRACELETS MADE OF PALASITE, OR EVEN EARRINGS FOR THAT MATTER. THAT MAKES THESE GEMSTONES AN UNBELIEVABLE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY AS WELL AS A GREAT LOT FOR JEWELERS AND RESELLERS AS WELL.
