DESCRIPTION
From the hand of the master, Tom Munsteiner. This magnificent fantasy sculpture is a study in both gem cutting and three dimensional design. Gem sculpture by modern masters like Munsteiner, Dyber and Dyer will, once the hype has dissipated, define jewelry design in the second half of the 2oth Century and the name Munsteiner will equal that of Lalique..
Bolivian ametrine with its dual colored crystal is the absolutely perfect medium for a gem sculptor, allowing him to play both with shape and color.
Comments: The gem grade takes into consideration that the piece is one of a kind.
The grading categories used here are based on the approach recommended in my book: Secrets Of The Gem Trade,
The Connoisseur's Guide To Precious Gemstones.
