A beautiful 2.61 carat natural sapphire from Sri Lanka, cut as an oval with excellent brilliance. Measuring 9.10 x 7.20 x 4.70mm, this stone has good face-up size for its weight and wears larger than many 2.61ct stones cut with more depth. The stone shows a soft pink hue with violet-blue flashes across the facets, giving it a lively, shifting color presence. Clarity grade VS, essentially eye-clean with only minor inclusions visible under magnification. 100% natural color, no heat treatment. A lovely, wearable pastel sapphire with strong luster and a substantial face-up footprint.
