Really beautiful 2.30 carats mid blue heat only round sapphire. I literally looked at thousands of sapphires or more before I purchased this one and I am extra super fussy when it comes to coloured stones as they were either too dark or too pale, this one is mid coloured - not as dark as Royal blue and therefore NEVER blacks out in any lighting but it's still a nice rich blue (and never pale) in colour inside and under certain lighting it goes a more mid blue like that much sort after top vivid cornflower blue colour.

All sapphires coloured change in various lighting situations I have taken photos to show it as dark as it gets and also when it goes that lighter vivid colour. Either way it's always pretty and never too dark or too light. It's a fraction darker than the much sort after vivid dark top cornflower blue. Photos 1, 2 and 3 on LT (and below) are how it looks most of the time, photo 4 (on LT and below) shows it when it goes a more cornflower colour and photo 5 (last photo on LT) shows it at is worst that is about as dark as it ever gets and that was intentionally making it look as dark and as ugly as possible but most of the time it is most like photos 1, 2 and 3.

Will be a gorgeous stone for a ring!!!!

The stone is 2.30 carats heat only. 7.20 (7.18)mms across and 5.37 deep. The stone has a slight window in the centre and things like that usually bug me but it's small enough that I don't think it was worth tweaking and the colour is nice enough I just left it alone.

Asking $1500.00 ono, which is a great price for a sapphire this colour over 2 carats. Only reason for selling is I've found a larger stone the same colour that is expensive and my husband would flip out if I kept both.

Trackable signed for postage to anywhere (the US or Australia) is $30USD.

Thanks!!! A P/Ser asked me for a video, this was taken really quickly no special lighting, no pen lights no fancy equipment, old Iphone and stone only on a really dark cloudy day link with the added bonus of car noises in the background :lol: ;

Oh look if it was a pair I'd keep it and make earrings or something out of it, that would be stunning!!! :naughty:

I was going to put a halo of decent sized diamonds around it and make a killer dinner ring or something like that out of it, but I've found another larger stone the same colour, that doesn't match and I don't need two, so hopefully I'll find a new home for it. It's a pretty stone, will look great in a ring!!!
 
It really is gorgeous - absolutely love that shade of blue. By any chance do you have a lab report for it that might confirm heat only?

Thanks. I'm sure you'll have no problem selling this quickly. :praise:
 
Great color, especially even on a cloudy day. I would love to make it mine, but alas not in the cards right now.

No, but I am happy to give a full refund for anything that is not as described.
This stone has been sold now anyway.
 
It's mine now. And it's lovely!
 
Congratulations, BlingObsession! I had to stay RIGHT away from this thread! I saw that color and......

I am indeed very lucky.

Now for the setting ... I have considered a moi-et-toi and also a 3 stone setting idea too. But Arkie and I came to the conclusion that an old cut halo would be perfect for the stone so that's the route I shall take If I can find enough matching old cuts...
