The coveted loupe clean sapphire! It leans dominantly green indoors and blue/green in daylight. It is a very desirable shape with an open tone! This will make a stunning centerpiece to a ring! 

I feel like there is a misconception about how I facet sapphires. Let me clarify, when I facet gems with my Universe cut, it's a sacrificial cut. A regular cut or boat bottom cut sapphire with the same dimensions would be double the weight and in some cases more.

Detailed Gem Description:

A natural and heat-treated zoisite var. Tanzanite with a dominant violet hue, a medium tone, and moderately strong to strong saturation.  This is an open-tone gem, it will glow and sparkle in any lighting!

See the last graphic for reference on how I graded these. To maintain originality, I made the reference graphics with gems of my own design but it is based on GIA's color description system.

Photos were taken in daylight and under a microscope.  The first four videos were taken in daylight with the sun overhead and a blue sky. The last few scenes in the fourth video are inside in passive lighting and under my overhead LED lights. The outdoor scenes in the fifth video were taken on an overcast day.   Please review all the videos thoroughly.

Gemstone Rough Country of Origin: Tanzania
Cutter: Indigo
