Comment: Just as the photos show sometimes purple, sometimes pink, just in-between, or both, no window, no visible inclusions (eye-clean), no window, no treatments, that's our three NOs checked. With 5x3mm the gem will appreciate a little support in a ring, be it from a thick bezel or a halo, unless it is a small ring size under four. Typical Mada-sapphire inclusions, fuzzy little disturbances, a pest under the camera's magnification, hardly visible under the lens, much less so to the unaided eye. With full IGI report including origin and 'no heat', from rose to reddish purple, an affordable entry into real all-natural unheated sapphire. For $500, you may find double the size in a heated sapphire, or ten carat of diffused sapphire, or a bag of synthetics. You can guess which we recommend.
