At a clarity grade described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the stone offers excellent transparency and clean appeal to the unaided eye, with minor inclusions that attest to its natural origin rather than detract from its beauty. The color intensity is classified as intense, which means the padparadscha tone is vivid and lively across the crown and pavilion, responding to light with warm flashes that enhance both pink and orange facets. The polish is excellent, producing crisp facet lines and a bright, lively surface. Enhancement disclosure is provided with full transparency, this gem has been heat treated, a widely accepted and stable treatment that improves color and clarity while being fully disclosed so you can make an informed choice. The origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a historic source for some of the world most treasured sapphires, and this provenance is part of what gives this stone its character.
