6.97 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Blue Star Sapphire Pair from Burma (Myanmar)

This pair of natural star sapphires presents as translucent, oval cabochons with clean domes and distinct asterism. The two stones weigh 3.52 carats and 3.45 carats respectively, with precise dimensions of 8.17 x 7.98 x 4.93 mm and 8.18 x 7.73 x 5.06 mm, offering close matching proportions suitable for a coordinated set. Both stones are cut as cabochons to maximize the visibility of the star, and they exhibit a pleasing medium intense blue color that remains well saturated without appearing overly dark. Under direct light the star effect is observable and centered, indicating well oriented silk inclusions that produce the characteristic six ray asterism, and the overall translucency allows for a lively interaction between the star and the body color.

In terms of clarity and finish, both sapphires are graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which is consistent with natural star sapphire material where fine rutile inclusions are responsible for the chatoyancy. The polish on both pieces is excellent, with smooth, well finished domes and clean girdles. There has been no enhancement, the stones are untreated, and the origin is Burma Myanmar, a source known for classic, highly regarded blue sapphires. These attributes make the pair especially suitable for matched earrings or a complementary matched set, as the sizes and profiles will sit evenly in a balanced mounting. The Natural Sapphire Company has presented these stones with attention to precise measurements and transparent grading, and we recommend viewing the pair under a focused light source to appreciate the quality of the asterism and the distribution of color. For setting considerations, the cabochon height and minor differences in profile are typical for natural material, and a slightly deeper bezel or custom seat will ensure secure and symmetrical mounting.
