<p>[QUOTE=&quot;smallaxe, post: 2445122, member: 13430&quot;]Here are some photos of the stone. After cleaning, I was surprised to see some stark color differences within stone when backlit. I thought, hmmm, it must be glass. Then I searched around and discovered <b>zoning</b>, although I don&#039;t know if that&#039;s what this is. I&#039;ve included a bunch of photos, because how it looks depends on the angle and the light. It can all appear one color, and then change the angle a little and it&#039;s very light in one area and noticeably darker in another, and sometimes it&#039;s a very angular line between the two. I picked the angles where it shows up the most. The final picture is the ring on my pinky out in sunlight. On the finger, the color variations pretty much aren&#039;t visible. I feel like I&#039;m beating a dead horse here since even if real, it&#039;s just an amethyst, but I&#039;m learning a lot, so thanks for bearing with me.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]264878[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]264879[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]264880[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]264882[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]264883[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
