Ceylon Blue Sapphire Trilliant-6.0mm-1.21cts (BLUETNS6121)
|
This is one of the closest matches to a Kashmir colored saphire I think you'll find (the Kashmir mines were exhaustedin the early part of the 1900's). With its lush color and deep saturation like a Kashmir stone but also with the added benefit of the traditional Ceylon brilliance. Eye clean plus in clarity.
