This remarkable gemstone measures precisely 4.02 x 3.95 x 2.27 mm, a testament to the precision and skill involved in its faceting. Inspired by the famed Asscher cut, first developed in 1902 by the Royal Asscher Diamond Company, this octagon-shaped sapphire draws parallels with legendary jewels of the past. The Asscher cut is renowned for its symmetrical, almost architectural brilliance that offers a window deep into the heart of the sapphire.
