Meticulously crafted with precision, this sapphire embodies premium quality through its impressive attributes. Its dimensions, 8.45 x 6.72 x 3.12 mm, reflect a harmonious balance that is both aesthetically pleasing and technically superior. At the heart of its allure is the mixed brilliant cut, a hallmark of exceptional craftsmanship that maximizes the stone's inherent sparkle and brilliance.

These slight inclusions are characteristic of natural sapphires and serve as an assurance of authenticity. They do not detract from the gem’s overall beauty but rather highlight its natural origin and the inherent uniqueness of each stone. The inclusions are so ingeniously situated that they do not impair the transparency or the play of light within the sapphire, allowing it to maintain an exceptional optical performance.

Craftsmanship is evident in the excellent polish of this sapphire. The skill involved in achieving such a polish ensures that each facet gleams with unmatched clarity, allowing light to enter and exit the stone in perfect harmony. This ensures maximum brilliance, as the interplay of light creates a dazzling effect that enhances the sapphire's appeal. An excellent polish also means that the gemstone has been handled with the utmost care, reflecting The Natural Sapphire Company's commitment to providing only the highest quality gemstones to discerning buyers.
