A Sparkling 100% Purple Pink Sapphire Heart. Top Jewel! 100% Eye Clean.
For those not used to buying sapphires on line, here are a few pointers.
It is estimated that over 90% of sapphires on the market are heated to improve colour and saturation. However a lot depends on the original quality of the gem. Many heated sapphires have some colour banding. Look carefully at pictures. However, pictures can be taken that do not show this banding. If in doubt - ask the seller a question.
Poorly cut/poor quality sapphires have windows (pale patches) or dull spots. Again, pictures can be taken that do not show these. So if you are looking for a quality sapphire - ask a question first rather than spend good money on a disappointing gem - and then have to fight for your money back.
Under 10 x magnification this Sapphire is well cut and polished. It is classed as VS2(100% eye clean). With a loupe you will see no damage such as abrasion marks, chips etc to any of the facets.
