DESCRIPTION:

Super lot of vivid Cornflower Blue to Plum Tanzanian Songea Sapphire Faceting Rough.  This is an awesome lot of mostly alluvial rough with the bulk of the stones looking eye-clean to very slightly included. Many of the stones do have some minor inclusions; however, for the price we have on this you shouldn't think twice about picking it up. This caliber material is next to impossible to get in Tanzania consistently unless you stay in the bush. Most of the Songea material is being purchased by Thais directly from Songea and the competition has shot the price for this material through the roof!

Most stones in the parcel are nice and chunky capable of supporting above average weight returns. This material is very glassy and even though many stones have some minor inclusions, I'm confident you will get some dazzling stones out of here. I think 2-3 faceted stones from the parcel should pay for the lot pretty easy!

This is 100% natural material and most stones have nice vivid color. We have seen many sellers selling Tanzanian Songea Sapphire such as this and charging an arm & a leg and/or selling light colors advising that the stones are capable of being treated - THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH THIS! - These stones are JUST perfect the way they are! We have a VERY limited amount of this material in stock!!! The lot is priced to sell so don't miss out!

COOL FACTS:
  1. Tanzania is a hot spot for Sapphire Rough; however, over the last few years many dealers for Tanzanian Mine Direct rough have been shooting their prices up through the roof. Shop around and you will see how reasonable our prices really are.
