For centuries, the allure of sapphires has captivated the imaginations of royalty and commoners alike.

The round shape of this sapphire enhances its ability to capture and refract light with captivating allure. Exhibiting a mixed brilliant cut, this exquisite gem is a dance of light and shadow, each facet revealing the deep, mysterious blue that has been prized since the times of ancient civilizations. The cut's precision underscores the stone's natural clarity, evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, offering a pure glimpse into its crystalline depths.
