Ceylon Blue Heart Cut Sapphire 2.96 cts 9.6x8.1x4.8mm (BLUEHNS296)
|
Something about a heart cut sapphire that’s very soothing, charming and of course romantic. When that stone also has a Ceylon pedigree like this one, you add that magical sparkle and brilliance to the formula as well. This sapphire has a soothing sky blue color and excellent clarity (Type 2 VVS). My guess is this sapphire will be a keepsake pendant that is passed down for many generations to enjoy for decades to come.
The sapphire is loupe clean in clarity (Type 2 VVS)
