Absolutely stunning hand cut Cerium doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet cut stone. This beautiful hand cut stone was used for a Union Carbide display back in 1992. This is American made pulled single crystal Cerium doped YAG. Originally, Ce:YAG is used for making ultra sensitive radiation detectors. The material that went into making this stunning stone was almost a kilo of rough CeYAG. The wholesale cost of Ce:YAG in those days was about $2500~3000/kg
For hand cut stones of this size, the customery wholesale cost for an American cutter was about $0.50~$1.50. You can do the math as to how much this display piece original cost.
