One cannot overstate the significance of a mixed brilliant cut when it comes to manifesting the grandeur inherent in a jewel of this caliber.

The clarity grade of this sapphire—very slightly included, as evaluated at eye level—serves as a testament to its quality. While minor inclusions whisper tales of the stone's natural origin, they remain but mere whispers, not visible to the unaided eye, thereby preserving the sapphire's optical clarity and aesthetic integrity. The excellent polish further exemplifies the gemstone's surface perfection, ensuring that it remains free of any significant blemishes or marks. This aspect is particularly enticing for connoisseurs and collectors who seek pieces that offer not just beauty, but transitional and lasting investment opportunities.
