I bought myself an old (nearly 100 years) new to me ring for my birthday. It has a small sapphire in the center and is a very pretty blue in both indoor and outdoor lighting and very glowy almost neon in sun.
Anyways, my youngest son got a microscope for Christmas so I tried to get some pictures of the inclusions. There is facet wear (to be expected) I just don’t know that these inclusions tell anything about the sapphire. Sorry about that stray white hair off to the side, it was stuck under a prong. These were taken with 10x magnification.
