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 (7.1mms 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.
