Overall Assessment
A raw, highly included natural diamond crystal showcasing genuine geological characteristics, ideal for unique artisan rough-diamond jewelry rather than traditional investment portfolios.
Cut Quality
Not Applicable (Rough stone)
Brilliance
Low to moderate due to heavy inclusions and lack of standard facet geometry
Fire
Minimal dispersion visible in current rough state
Scintillation
Poor light return and sparkle pattern due to dense internal inclusions
Proportions
Natural rough morphology; no standard table or depth proportions
Symmetry
Natural crystal symmetry (distorted octahedron/irregular growth)
Polish
Raw/Unpolished natural crystal faces and fractures
Fluorescence
Cannot be determined visually without UV testing
Inclusions
Heavy internal fracturing, feather inclusions, mineral crystals, and cloudiness
Blemishes
Natural surface etch channels, trigons, pitting, and rough fracture areas
Origin
Alluvial or primary kimberlite deposit origin
Treatment Detection
No signs of artificial treatment; appears completely untreated and natural
Estimated Value
Varies widely as a rough specimen; $500 - $1,500 depending on cutting yield potential
Certification Estimate
GIA or IGI would issue a rough diamond report or grade post-cutting
Investment Potential
Low investment liquidity as a rough gem-grade stone; primarily collector or jewelry use
Similar Diamonds
Industrial or lower-gem quality rough diamond crystals
Setting Suggestions
Best suited for organic raw-stone jewelry, wire-wrapping, or custom artisan bezel settings
