Video available on request. THIS IS A GENUINE EARTH MINED SAPPHIRE. Expect minor flaws and inclusions. I do not sell lab produced or glass filled stones which are not considered real gems. Flawless genuine gems are rare and expensive. Flawless fakes and man made gems are plentiful and cheap. Why Settle for Imitations?
Please read the IMPORTANT TERMS AND INFORMATION page at least once as it applies to all listings. ANY questions, please ask.
Sapphire is the birth stone for those born in September. Corundum, with traces of iron, titanium, chromium, vanadium or magnesium responsible for the color. Sapphires are 9 on the moh's scale, right behind diamond ( moh's10)
Sapphire is said to bring peace and prosperity to those that own it.
The most expensive sapphire to my knowledge ( The Blue Belle) sold for approx. $17,00,000.00 at auction in 2014. Only in fairly modern times, after a massive advertising campaign, have diamonds become the usual stone for engagements. Before that sapphires ruled. Indeed, Prince William gave Kate Middleton a magnificent sapphire.
