Comments:
This gem has a few inclusions, as are typical of sapphires from Umba, Tanzania. I try to sell only clean ones, but this one I found myself a little back and forth on, because it has the inclusions, including a bit of junk near the culet, but the COLOR was so excellent, I decided to list it ON SALE!
This gem is so dynamic because technically it's bicolor between light purple and dark purple. It's hard to really discern that by just looking at it, so it presents as 'moody', or 'color shiftey'.
Enjoy it for the bargain it is, flaws and all!
