Benefitting from a beautiful precision diamond cut, this magical stone is set in an intricate five-strand necklace made from over 208 grams of 18-karat white gold and 57 carats of diamonds.

Often referred to as the chameleon gemstone, Zultanite has the exceptional ability to change colors in different light, from canary yellows to kiwi greens, cognac pinks and rich champagnes.
For this once in a lifetime jewel, designer Kat Florence travelled to the only known source of Zultanite in the world, a 300-meter vein in the Anatolian mountains in Turkey.
One of nature’s rarest minerals, it is extremely difficult to produce unblemished Zultanite gemstones over 1 carat in size. This truly incredible find came from an original stone of well over 1 kilogram.
