Weighing in at 1.28 carats and taking on an emerald cut shape, this sapphire showcases dimensions of 7.61 by 5.04 by 3.18 millimeters. The emerald cut is known for its strong step-like faceting pattern, which brings out the natural beauty of the stone while allowing maximum light play. This choice of cut accentuates the stone's natural clarity and color, offering a panoramic window into the gem's heart. The stone's transparency ensures that light glides effortlessly across its surfaces, creating a mesmerizing interplay of reflections and brilliance.

In terms of clarity, this sapphire possesses a grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level. This classification indicates the presence of minute inclusions that are not immediately visible to the naked eye and do not interfere with the stone's overall visual appeal. Such a clarity grade speaks to both the precision involved in its cutting and the inherent quality of the rough gemstone. This gem showcases a masterful blend of nature and art, combining pristine clarity with expert craftsmanship resulting in a stone of enduring appeal.

The inherent warmth of the yellow color imparts the sapphire with a unique vibrancy that enhances its allure.

Craftsmanship plays a pivotal role in transforming this rough gem into a polished marvel. The excellent polish of the gemstone surfaces speaks volumes about the expertise involved in its creation. This degree of polish ensures minimal loss of light through the gem, allowing for optimal brilliance and scintillation. An outstanding polish also helps in minimizing any distortion that might arise when light is refracted through the gem.
