Gemologist's Comments on Clarity:
The features seen in the stone's pavilion are naturally occurring rough, unpolished surface areas. When cutting & polishing yellow sapphires, it's a common practice to intentionally keep certain portions of the stone in the natural, rough, unpolished form, particularly in the pavilion/bottom of the stone. This is done to preserve the carat weight and maintain the stone's overall shape/symmetry. Such minor external features are commonly seen in most natural & unheated/untreated yellow sapphires. Since they are located in the pavilion, they don't affect the stone's clarity, face-up appearance, or luster.
