Description/Interesting Notes:

An absolutely remarkable, old time fancy colored diamond from this classic locale!!! This specimen consists of a pristine, gem crystal of rare ORANGE diamond!!! Take note, this specimen's color is a complex hue that would best be described as an orange-amber with reddish brown hues but make no mistake, this is a true fancy color beauty!!! This specimen is unlike any other diamond that I have seen with regard to its exceptional color AND dramatic fire!!! The crystal has pristine gem clarity throughout with no visible inclusions!!! The color is deep and intense throughout!!! The crystal exhibits a highly complex, somewhat rounded form and is complete, undamaged, and pristine all around!!! Fine, colored diamonds that have dramatic and showy color are extremely rare and highly sought after!!! The color is just like the photos show - a complex brownish-amber-orange color that is intensely fiery in person!!! Because of its fine gem clarity, complex form, and intense color - this specimen literally lights up like it is plugged in!!! Simply amazing in person!!! This specimen is from an incredible suite of rare and unusual diamond crystals in the Mecke collection and was easily one of the most eye-catching specimens of the group!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This specimen is from the collection of Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!! Prior to the Nikischer collection this specimen was originally from the collection of Florence Mecke (acquired from the late 1930's until the 1970's)!!!
