The featured gemstone is a breathtaking 0.68 carat oval purple sapphire, exhibiting remarkable transparency and brilliance. With precise dimensions measuring 6.59 x 4.53 x 2.99 mm, this sapphire is meticulously crafted in a mixed brilliant cut, a choice that optimally enhances both the visual appeal and the intrinsic beauty of the stone. The established clarity grade of very slightly included, as evaluated at eye level, ensures that minor inclusions do not detract from its overall allure.
