2.09 ct Yellow Sapphire - Oval

This 2.09-carat sapphire is cut as an oval measuring 7 x 5.5 x 3.3 mm, with a yellow body color, sourced from Nigeria.

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. Nigeria is an increasingly important sapphire source, much of it fine enough to need no treatment at all. It carries a beryllium diffusion treatment, a modern heat-and-diffusion process, disclosed plainly here as on every listing.

One of a kind, it exists exactly once; there is no second example to size up or down. It is the rarer object, and the kind of gemstone that becomes an heirloom. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
