Does this unheated blue sapphire look okay?

[higanbanya]

Came across this unheated blue sapphire 1.43ct 7.0 x 6.0 x 3.4mm on Insta which seems to be going at a good price ~USD430 but I’m new to the coloured gemstones space - is this worth getting for the price as an impulse purchase, or should I pass on this as it looks to be heavily included?

Would appreciate any thoughts about this!

It will most certainly look pitch black in most lights. The price is low, yes, but already too high for this quality. Don’t let the “unheated” label fool you. River pebbles are also unheated

LOL that’s true, might have focused too much on the unheated label

Thank you so much for the perspective!

I agree that it will look really dark in most conditions. I also think it looks a little dull and muddy.

Will pass on this since it doesn’t look promising - thanks for the insight!!

Too dark and opaque for my liking.
