Here is a perfect, and astonishingly beautiful example of how IGI doesn't know their a$$ from their elbow when it comes to grading fancy colors.
Can't blame them - it's a very specific and limited market. Must be hard to justify allocating the resources necessary to have the expertise to grade a stone like this.
For sure, it ain't no "Fancy Vivid Yellow". It's got some brown, at the very least.
Whatever colors are there, they're gorgeous.
The stone is just amazing! Love the cut. VS1 clarity - clean.
Freakin' thing is 3/4 of an inch long!
We can make an amazing ring - or necklace out of this puppy
