Now this is an interesting sapphire! It has perhaps one of the most interesting and unexpected color shifts that you are likely to see. When viewed in cooler lighting, this piece exhibits a bright burnished gold hue. But when seen in warmer lighting, you get a rich peach with nuances of pink. The shift is subtle, but definitely noticeable. And this change is all natural! This is an untreated gemstone! It has a classic oval cut with a high polished superior luster, and measures 7.5mm x 6.6mm x 3.6mm. Sourced from Tanzania.

Gems come with a complimentary gem jar for display and protection, size permitting. All treatments are disclosed*, and all weights and sizes are approximate. Listed gemstones are greatly magnified, and minor details that present themselves in the photo may not be visible with the naked eye. There may be slight color differences due to individual monitor settings and capabilities. *Except for topaz. As irradiation is the standard treatment for this gem type, they should be assumed to be as such, unless stated otherwise in the description.
