Royal Antwerp Gem Natural Dark Blue Sapphire 6.98 Ct Certified ⸻ DESCRIPTION This natural sapphire is presented in a classic oval mixed cut and displays a deep dark blue color with strong, rich tones. The gemstone has a slightly translucent structure, typical for basaltic sapphires, giving it a distinctive and natural character rather than a fully transparent appearance. Sapphires of this type are appreciated for their depth of color and unique internal structure, offering a more organic and natural look compared to highly transparent stones. The nearly 7 carat size gives this gemstone a strong visual presence, making it suitable for statement jewelry or collectors. The oval mixed cut enhances the overall shape and allows the color to distribute evenly across the surface, maintaining a balanced and harmonious appearance. The gemstone has been examined and certified in Antwerp, in one of the oldest and respected gemological laboratories in Belgium. This adds an additional level of confidence and reinforces the professional quality of the stone. Macro photography is used to show the gemstone in high detail under strong lighting conditions. Please note that inclusions and internal characteristics may appear more visible in magnified images than to the naked eye. Color may appear slightly different depending on lighting conditions and screen settings. Each screen displays colors differently, and slight variations may occur. A certified natural sapphire from Antwerp is always a reliable and attractive choice for buyers seeking a gemstone with strong character and natural beauty. ⸻ SPECIFICATIONS -Gemstone: Natural Sapphire -Weight: 6.98 ct -Shape: Oval -Cutting Style: Mixed Cut -Dimensions: 12.08 x 9.65 x 6.06 mm -Color: Dark Blue -Transparency: Translucent -Treatment: Indeterminable -Report Number: 1830016144 AN -Certification: Gem Report Antwerp -Origin: Basaltic type ⸻ SHIPPING Registered and insured shipping worldwide.
