This is a radiant cut meteorite peridot that was cut from crystals harvested from an Admire (Kansas) pallasite found by Steve Arnold. He sent along a laboratory certificate with the gemstone. I managed to get this from a little horse trade with Steve. The Admire pallasite is one if about only 4 or 5 worldwide that have been known to have gem quality crystals.View attachment 1612921View attachment 1612923View attachment 1612923 IMG_20180717_201620402_HDR.jpgIMG_20180717_201801476.jpg
