Earth mined sapphire, approx..65cwt. Any questions, please ask. Will fit standard premade 6x4 mm silver or gold setting if you wish to set at any time.
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 mohs scale, right behind diamond ( moh's10)
Sapphire is said to bring peace and prosperity to those that own it.
Sapphires are not as expensive as the other corundum, Ruby. The most expensive sapphire to my knowledge sold for approx. $17,00,000.00 at auction.
All our gemstones are true gems, earth mined, not man made. EXPECT FLAWS! Minor inclusions in any gem are not, as some think, a bad thing. They help a gemologist determine the authenticity of a gem. Man made gems are perfect.... but as they are not real earth mined gems, and can be made in the millions, they do not increase in value. Supply and demand rules If you are not sure how big this is , make certain you check on a measure marked in millimeters... the standard for measuring gems.
