Item Description
Here we have a nice Sapphire specimen from the famous Corundum producing region of Ganesh in Pakistan. The main crystal on this piece measures 0.8 cm across, and is sharp and well formed with good luster and an eye-catching pinkish-purple color. It's aesthetically sitting on white Calcite matrix. Good quality overall, and certainly is better than a large percentage of pieces I've handled from this area.
