Comment: Block-buster blue Ceylon sapphire in significant size. Inclusions, though exaggerated by the camera (see side-image), are hardly visible to the unaided eye. Popping intense color. Increasingly hard-to-find quality these days. Fat dream-blue with just the right amount of silk. Better than whats-her-name's royal wedding sapphire, much better. AIGS certified unheated Ceylon. No window. Never dark. Uncommonly good sparkler. Hypnotic character. Once seen - never forgotten.
