Pretty 2.05 carat royal blue unheated untreated cushion cut sapphire. Stone is 7.35 x 5.45 x 4.70.
Half the sapphire is on the lighter side of Royal and is more of a bright open mid blue than the other half due to extinction overall, it faces up a bright vivid royal blue. Across the stone it looks brighter than a typical royal blue stone. I purchased this stone with two others and was planing on possibly recutting it but never got around to it. It is Sri Lanka origin and cost me $1650 USD (because it is unheated and untreated and a nice open blue) about 7+ years ago. You could recut it or if you leave it as is even with the extinction it is never too dark and is still a very pretty blue sapphire as far as darker blue sapphires go. It never blacks out and always has nice mid flashes of blue and it would look better again if you do decide to give it a light recut because the base colour it has is a very pleasing nice bright open mid blue.
Great stone for someone looking for a Royal coloured stone that is not too dark. Asking $1500 or best offer plus $25.00 for registered trackable shipping.
