2.50 Round Cornflower Blue Sapphire. This stone is a real true cornflower colour - that lighter to mid blue with a slight hint of lavender in some lighting colour. It colour changes from a lovely vivid electric blue in low lighting to the real colour (a lighter mid blue) of cornflowers in bright lighting.
This stone would be great for someone looking for a mid coloured not too dark stone who doesn't mind a sometimes hint of lavender.
The stone is 7.24 around and 5.53 deep. Heat only Madagascar origin.
Photos 1 & 2 are inside kitchen lighting and very close to what the eye sees in colour, photo 3 is in the light box which amps up the colour the stone is not that dark or saturated but this lighting is similar to strong shop lighting and what a lot of professional vendors use to take photos. Pics 4 and 5 are outside in the shade in natural lighting.
The following videos are a great example of how the colour changes depending upon the light source.
