Comment: Full-fledged GRS certified untreated padparadscha. The most famous of all fancy sapphires, here including the classic "native Ceylon cut" (see side images: slightly off-center and high cutlet - nothing bad). Investor sapphire. Only the lens reveals some minor inclusions in the outer edge. Bright pure orange-pink untreated Ceylon sapphires are beyond rare. No yellow, brown or purple in this pad. Mark, how the second of the big images, which was shot just 10 minutes apart from the rest (battery re-load), changed and, typical for pads in sunlight, caught more reddish orange from the just setting sun (only pure indirect light with us - no digital tricks). Very delicate beauty.
