Fine Sapphire, as well as a great many other gems, have been coming out of the Tunduru River valley in Tanzania for many years now. As a rule, most of the rough is not large and does not produce large gemstones; however, there is a great variety of intriguing color. This stone has been concave cut to maximize the brilliance and light return. Concave cutting is done by carving the exterior of the stone with a cylindrical bur, instead of traditional flat faceting. This stone does a slight color shift form daylight to incandescent. It goes a pretty hot pink color in incandescent, and has that purple overtone in daylight. This is a lovely stone and will certainly make a beautiful piece of jewelry.
