Description: This splendidly bright and firey orange sapphire Is a treasure and a treat. It shines bright and sparkles with such brilliance, it seems to be on fire itself. I discovered it in an A to Z parcel of rare gemstones purchased from JTV circa 2009. I verified it using gem spectrascope, refractometer, specific gravity, filters and optical light testing. Given the time and retailer of the stone, I would guess it's a Songea Sapphire but, I am unsure as to it's true origin. I see evidence under loop that it has been heat treated and given the bright color, I am willing to bet it has been beryllium treated. It does contain inclusions under 10x loop making it easy to identify as natural gemstone.All in all this is a lovely bright sapphire of a nice size and decent quality. Let my lucky find be your opportunity to get a great deal on an excellent gemstone.
