Stunning 2.52 carats mid blue heat only cushion sapphire. I literally looked at a lot of sapphires before I purchased this one and I am super fussy when it comes to coloured stones, this one is mid to dark mid coloured blue in dark or low lighting and a lighter mid colour in really bright shop lighting or full bright sunlight. It therefore NEVER blacks out in any lighting.
It varies from that much sort after lighter mid vivid cornflower blue people seek, to a slightly darker blue in poop lighting (which you can see in pics 4 & 5 where I've intentionally made it look as dark as it ever gets), to a mid lighter blue with what I'd describe as a touch of lilac. This one can look lighter than the much desired "cornflower" blue people seek but because of the touch of lilac you see in full Aussie sunlight it is probably closer in colour to real actual cornflowers than that particular blue used as a descriptor.
All sapphires coloured change in various lighting situations I have taken photos to show it as dark as it gets and also when it goes that lighter colour. Either way it's always very very pretty and never too dark or too light. In general it colour changes to darker than the infamous cornflower colour in bad or really dark low lighting to lighter than the much sort after vivid dark top cornflower blue in strong lighting...
The stone is 2.52 carats heat only. 7.55 x 6.82 x 6.11mms deep. The stone has a slight window in the centre we are talking a very small circle which most of the time disappears completely because of the nice colour.
