1.86ct Purple Cushion Cut Sapphire
Here is a really cool Square Cushion Sapphire.
It broadcasts purple in a very rich way - which is hard to do when you think about it.
As soon as the color of purple becomes lighter in color, it take on a different hue-violet, or other shades.
Pure purple is a pretty dark color. Can't be "bright purple"
This stone bounces back a nice amount of light considering the degree and depth of color.
The photos are my best effort, but they don't really capture the purple-ness. They do not do the stone justice.
We assume this sapphire to be heated.
The Ring
For this bold purple sapphire we chose a bold diamond halo.
This is really a stone that looks a bit different in real life - where the purple predominates.
However you can get the idea of a lovely custom made ring - 18kt white gold - super well cut surround stones in a rally well made, and comfortable to wear masterpiece.
The photos above are ACTUAL Photos of the sapphire ring you will receive.
WE LOVE SAPPHIRES THAT SPARKLE
In the photo on the right, you can see what I'm talking about.
The Sapphire on the left is quite a nice one. Believe it or not,
in this particular case, the Sapphire on the left had a higher
price than the stone on the right - which is the stone I chose.
It's making its new owner very happy as you read this.
Sparkle is the type of Sapphires, Rubies, and Emeralds we
carry.
Our stones are all NATURAL - including this awesome
Sapphire.
This one is a great example of the sparkle I love combined
with a deep rich color
Many Natural Sapphires, as we assume is true of this one, are heated during the cutting and finishing process.
Why we sell heated sapphires
When shopping for the gems we offer, we have incredibly high standards. We want to carry only exceptional diamonds, and sapphires. Yet we want to do this in a way that includes the collectors, and connoisseurs, as well as "normal people" who may want to forgo some of the finer points to get more bang for the buck.
When it comes to sapphires, there is a distinction between heated, and non heated stones. If a sapphire can be cut that keeps the color saturation, and brilliance without heating, it will bring a premium over a heated stone. In some cases, a huge premium.
The evidence of heating is fairly simple for labs to detect.
We have purchased sapphires that were claimed to be non heat stones, and sent them to GIA - every time they've come back non heated. We are very choosy in our sources as well.
No matter how comfortable we are with our sources for Sapphires, we will only guarantee a sapphire "non heated" with a GIA report to back it up.
The reason we offer primarily heated sapphires is that heating can be considered a part of the cutting process for most sapphire rough. When done properly, it will produce an even color and reduce the appearance of color striations - color banding.
We can obtain non heated sapphires when needed, usually we'll have a few on the site. However, when I see a stone that has a great appearance and reasonable price that has been heated, I like to offer them.
