1.06 ct Blue Sapphire - Oval

At 1.06 carats, this sapphire from Madagascar carries its blue color through an oval cut, measuring 7.1 x 5.6 x 3.6 mm.

Sapphire is corundum, one of the hardest materials in the gem world after diamond, and it comes in every color the species holds except the red the trade reserves for ruby. Madagascar has become a major modern sapphire source, fine material across nearly every color at more reachable prices than the classic localities. It is heat-treated, the common and honest preparation for most sapphire and ruby on the market, disclosed on every listing.

This is a center-stone-grade gemstone with a character of its own, chosen rather than settled for. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
