A natural 1.40 carat faceted epidote gemstone from Pakistan, showcasing its distinctive deep green to brownish-green tones with bright internal reflections. Epidote is rarely found in faceted form, as most specimens are collected as raw crystals, making this cut stone a highly desirable collector’s piece.

Epidote is a calcium aluminum iron sorosilicate mineral with the formula Ca₂(Al,Fe)₃(SiO₄)₃(OH). Known for its strong pleochroism, epidote can display different shades of green when viewed from various angles. While Pakistan produces some of the finest crystal specimens, faceted examples are far less common, with additional occurrences noted in Austria, Norway, and Alaska.

This gemstone is an excellent addition for collectors seeking unusual faceted stones, a teaching specimen for gem enthusiasts, or a rare inclusion in a faceted gemstone suite.
