Sapphire from Ceylon
No. 165N: Oval Cut, SI2, 1.58 ct., 7.2 x 5.3 x 4.4 mm, faceted by: native cutter, $252.80
Shown above is a natural medium-blue sapphire from Ceylon. Although this is a native cut stone, the faceting is reasonably good; the proprotion and facet shape are acceptable, and the polish is very good. This gorgeous little stone would look great in a pendant, pin, or ring.
Note: Sapphire is commonly heat treated to improve both clarity and color. It should be assumed that the above gemstone has been so treated.
