Description

Gemstone: Ceylon Yellow Sapphire - 4.12 Cts.
Sri Lanka (Ceylon)

Hailing from one of the premier sources for Corundum, Sri Lanka, this Ceylon Yellow Sapphire weighs in at an impressive and sizable 4.12 carats and features a soft yellow bodycolor. Expertly cut in a classic oval shape with mixed faceting-brilliant facets on the crown and step cuts on the pavilion-the gem showcases lively scintillation, good brilliance, and excellent polish luster.
Accompanied by an AGL (American Gemological Laboratories) Prestige Gemstone Report stating the stone is rare with no heating, uncommon for the variety as most Yellow Sapphires are heated to enhance color and appearance. The stone is eye-clean, with only a small feather near the girdle visible under magnification and a few minor nicks along the girdle; otherwise, it is in excellent condition. This is a top-quality example from a world-class locality-an ideal centerpiece for fine jewelry.
Measurements: 10.62 x 8.62 x 5.52 mm, 4.12 cts.

Accompanied by AGL Report #1145146
