Item Description
Sapphires is one of those gems that comes in virtually every color of the rainbow. Here we have a beautiful orange-red Sapphire (very close to being a Ruby) from one of the most productive localities for the material in the world. This fine little sparkler, and is very slightly included, with a standard "Step Oval" cut. The color is rather saturated and the stone has been heated to help increase the color, which is a perfectly safe and accepted practice in the gem world. Sapphires is one of those gems that comes in virtually every color of the rainbow, and they are some of the most popular, durable, colorful and highly sought after gems on the planet.
