Cut in a mixed brilliant style, the stone delivers a lively, modern sparkle combined with a classic cushion silhouette, and an excellent polish that produces a clean, reflective surface. The clarity has been graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means that to the unaided eye the gem reads as transparent and pristine, allowing the intense blue to command attention without distraction.
