Comment: Probably the last white sapphire for a while (not because we don't want any, but because we can't get any). Many pure white corundum's are heated and sold as padparadschas, plus they are much rare than colored ones, too. This here is the only type of sapphire not colored by impurities of iron, copper, magnesium, and others, but has naturally grown to be colorless or pure white. Close to 6mm with only 76 points, it makes a fine alternative for a mundane diamond. Perfectly shaped and facetted in a traditional hand-cut almost as perfect as a precision-cut but with little signs of handy-craft under the lens only. As always, any colors in the images are background reflections (which we don't photoshop away). See the long hand-shot for its blazing fire.
