From every angle this sapphire rewards the gaze, its intense color intensity saturates the field with a regal blue that shifts with subtlety rather than volatility, the mixed brilliant cut blends the scintillating fire of brilliant facets with the classical depth of a cushion outline, this combination allows light to enter, fracture, and return in a balanced choreography, the excellent polish lends each facet a mirror finish, and the result is a surface that reads as almost flawless to the naked eye, while the clarity is evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, those minute natural fingerprints remain discreet, they do not interrupt the gem’s visual integrity, instead they serve as an assurance of authenticity that collectors prize, the clarity and polish together create an uninterrupted plane for light to travel through the stone, and that clear passage amplifies the saturated blue so that it breathes with life when tilted, when viewed face up the pavilion and crown cooperate to create depth, when seen on the finger the cushion shape and balanced proportions flatter the hand, and when examined under a loupe the precision of the mixed brilliant cut becomes an object lesson in craftsmanship.

The geometry of this cushion sapphire is designed to maximize beauty from every perspective, the generous table offers a window into the stone’s heart, where color concentration sits like a center of gravity, the crown facets refract incoming light into lively flashes, and the pavilion facets return that light as a steady, luminous glow, the mixed brilliant cut was chosen to marry brilliance with a soft, classic silhouette, the stone’s dimensions of 9.98 by 9.56 by 5.09 millimeters create an ideal depth to width ratio, this balance prevents the color from becoming too dark while maintaining a saturated presence, the excellent polish ensures facet junctions are crisp, and crispness translates into crisp reflection and scintillation, even under ambient lighting this sapphire displays nuanced zones of brightness and velvety blue that move with you, its intense color intensity is not flat, it is layered, a tapestry of blue that responds to light and shadow with elegant modulation, the lack of enhancement means this interplay of light and color is entirely natural, it is a performance staged by nature and revealed by masterful cutting, the result is a gem that appears virtually flawless in everyday wear, its visual perfection is something you will notice the moment you lift it to the light.
