DESCRIPTION: |
Awesome lot of Royal Blue to Greenish Blue Cat's Eye Sapphire Rough from Bauchi, Nigeria! This is some of the better rough we have acquired of Star Sapphire and this is all we have to offer at this time. Overall the material is mostly a Greenish Blue with some Yellow Overtones and only one stone really looked like it had any inclusions other than the Asterism that would interfere with normal cutting. Please note that the material is MUCH better than the above pictures indicate and this material has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Sapphire production is at a virtual standstill for this material in Nigeria and prices at the mines are generally above what we are selling the material for at the moment. As a result of these events we do not anticipate getting additional material in stock at the same price once this is gone. This is ideal material for resale and/or cutting! Please don't miss out on this as it will be quite some time before we get our next batch in if at all. |
