1.00 ct Yellow Sapphire - Oval

At 1 carats, this sapphire from Thailand carries its yellow color through an oval cut, measuring 6.8 x 5.5 x 3.6 mm.

Sapphire is the gem form of corundum, second only to diamond in hardness among the classic gemstones, which is why it wears so well in jewelry worn daily. Thailand is both a corundum source and the great cutting and finishing hub of the colored gemstone trade. It carries a beryllium diffusion treatment, a modern heat-and-diffusion process, disclosed plainly here as 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.
