Sapphire from Ceylon
No. 956X: Standard Brilliant Cut, VVS, 0.91 ct., 5.7 x 3.6 mm, faceted by: native cutter, $91.00 Sold
Shown above is a medium dark, purplish-colored sapphire from Ceylon. Although this is a native cut stone, the faceting is quite good. The proprotions, facet shape, meetpoints and polish, as well as the clarity, are all good. This beautiful gemstone 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.
