Cushion Cut Color Change YAG Pair - 2.3ct total

Product Spotlight: Custom Cushion Cut Color-Change Nd:YAG Pair

Discover the perfect fusion of science and art with this precision-cut pair of Neodymium-doped YAG (Yttrium Aluminum Garnet). Crafted for those who appreciate both technical mastery and ethereal beauty, these stones offer a "living" color experience that shifts seamlessly with your environment.

The "Lavender Ghost" Effect

This pair features a remarkable color-change phenomenon. In cool daylight or fluorescent settings, the stones glow with a serene, icy lavender. Under warm, incandescent lighting, they transform into a vibrant, romantic pink. This dramatic shift is not a mere trick of the light—it is a characteristic of the Neodymium ions within the garnet’s crystal lattice.

Precision Lapidary

Each stone has been meticulously hand-faceted into a Custom Cushion Cut. Designed to maximize the high refractive index of YAG, these gems feature razor-sharp meet points and a final 60k diamond polish that creates a "buttery" luster. The result is a pair of stones with exceptional brilliance and edge-to-edge scintillation.
