Blue Sapphire

Description

Clarity & Cut

Natural inclusions in colored gemstones are a key feature that helps distinguish them from synthetic materials. Along with color, cut, and carat weight, clarity is a crucial factor in determining a sapphire’s value.

High-quality sapphires generally have minimal visible inclusions, while lower-grade stones may have inclusions noticeable from certain angles. We provide high-resolution, unedited photographs from multiple perspectives to showcase the stone’s true characteristics. If you’d like an even more detailed view, we recommend requesting a short video under natural light.

Most colored gemstones are cut in a “mixed” style, combining a brilliant-cut crown with a step-cut pavilion. The “cut” prioritizes brilliance and color, even at the expense of carat yield. Some stones retain their original “local” cut, preserving their natural charm, while select crystals remain in their raw, unfaceted form, just as nature created them.
