Here's a seductive blue sapphire with a deep saturation of color and extraordinary luster. This 6.00-carat natural blue sapphire, unenhanced by heat treatment, hails from one of Earth's largest known alluvial sapphire deposits in the valley of the Ilakaka river in Madagascar. It shows a stunning "royal blue" color, reminiscent of the color of ink in an inkpot.
