30.20 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Cabochon Amethyst Pair from Brazil

This translucent pair of oval purple amethysts presents a combination of substantial weight and clean appearance that appeals to an educated collector, the stones weigh 13.91 carats and 16.29 carats respectively, and measure 17.92 by 13.06 by 8.09 millimeters and 18.12 by 13.21 by 9.23 millimeters. Both gems are cabochon cut, which enhances the smooth, domed surface and allows the vivid purple color intensity to read evenly across the surface, the polish is excellent, producing crisp surface reflections without detracting from the stone body. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates only minor internal features that do not interfere with the overall visual impact or durability when properly set. These amethysts have been heat treated, a common and accepted enhancement that stabilizes and deepens color, and the material is sourced from Brazil, a recognized origin for high quality amethyst that is well documented in the gem trade.

For the informed buyer, several factors make this pair attractive, color and clarity are principal value drivers for amethyst, and the vivid purple tone combined with very slight inclusions yields a strong balance of aesthetic appeal and investment quality. The substantial carat weights and the paired matching of shape and hue are particularly desirable for matched earrings or a coordinated pendant and accent piece, the cabochon form also lends itself to classic and contemporary settings where the dome can be showcased without light leakage that is more relevant to faceted goods. Heat treatment in amethyst is stable and widely accepted, it does not require special care beyond normal gemstone maintenance, and provenance from Brazil supports traceability and market confidence. When evaluating value, consider the precision of the measurements for bezel and gallery clearance, the evenness of color across each dome, and the minimal nature of eye visible inclusions, these factors together inform both retail presentation and potential resale.
