Comment: Slender marquise sapphire. Shiny Lavender purple. With near 8x4mm this 57-pointer does qualify as a solitary ring stone (the advantage of marquise cuts). Lively crystal without any inclusions (unless you use a good lens, a steady hand and then, with a sharp eye, go very deep to find one or two colourless bubbles). Certified unheated by AIGS. Good value, with purple still being less expensive than pink or blue (for whatever reason).
