3.05 Cushion Unheated Burma Sapphire

Description
An old "Classic Mogok" Burma stone back for liquidation from a collector. It has the original AGL document that many of our clients prefer. Even signed by Cap Beesley. This is a top gem at 70% blue. The color/tone is 3.5/80. The color rating below is 75-80, meaning it's a light 80. The gem is MI1-MI2 clarity grade. No inclusions stand out in the video because the stone is so saturated blue. Very Good-Good (3-4) cutting and finish are exceptional for a stone cut in Mogok. It means the stone was recut by a professional, probably losing a great deal of weight. The stone is has a perfect 71.3% depth and high 60-70% brilliancy. The TQIR is Excellent to Very Good or 2.5. This gem would be beautiful mounted or a serious gemstone for a collector.
