Oval Cut Loose Gemstone

The item is an oval-cut loose gemstone, held within a small, circular, possibly velvet-lined display or storage container, which is being held between a person's thumb and index finger. The gemstone itself appears to be colorless or very lightly tinted, possibly exhibiting a faint yellow, green, or even pinkish hue depending on the lighting and its refractive properties. It exhibits a brilliant facet pattern, characteristic of gemstones cut for maximum sparkle, likely an oval brilliant cut. The pavilion facets are visible through the table, showing good light return, although the clarity is difficult to fully assess from the image; there are no immediately obvious large inclusions, suggesting it could be 'eye-clean'. The size of the stone is relatively small, judging by its proportion to the human finger holding it, likely less than 1 carat, but this is an estimation without a reference scale. The presentation in the black, circular holder suggests it is being stored or presented for examination, possibly for sale or appraisal. The holder itself appears to have a clear, possibly acrylic or glass, outer rim protecting the stone. There are no visible markings, signatures, or stamps evident on the stone or its holder from this angle. The estimated age is recent, given the clean cut and typical display method for modern gemstones. The quality of the cut appears good, maximizing brilliance.
