{"product_id":"4-40-ct-pear-faceted-amethyst","title":"4.40 CT Checkerboard Faceted Light Amethyst","description":"\u003cp\u003eLight amethyst with a delicate lavender-violet tone that shifts beautifully depending on the light. This 4.40 carat loose stone is cut in a checkerboard facet pattern sized at 14.5 x 10mm — a style that creates a mosaic of flat-topped facets across the table, giving the stone a distinct texture and sparkle compared to a standard brilliant cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stone is relatively clean with a few minor inclusions visible under magnification. There are also a few small chips along the girdle edge, which is worth noting for setting purposes — a bezel or deep prong set would protect and conceal them cleanly. At 4.40 carats it has solid size and presence, and the light color makes it a versatile candidate for designs where you want subtle color rather than deep saturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a natural amethyst, loose and ready to be set. Only one stone is available from the retired jeweler's collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: Natural Amethyst\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 4.40 carats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut: Checkerboard facet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Light lavender-violet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: Relatively clean with minor inclusions; small chips along the girdle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Natural, loose gemstone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Retired jeweler's personal collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantity: 1 stone only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VAEL Designs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46708829061281,"sku":"GEMS-0002","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/5279\/4157\/files\/loose-gemstones-4-40-ct-checkerboard-faceted-light-amethyst-1249385082.jpg?v=1784257359","url":"https:\/\/www.vaeldesigns.com\/products\/4-40-ct-pear-faceted-amethyst","provider":"VAEL Designs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
