2.54 Carat "Aurora" Fantasy Cut Nigerian Sapphire

This green-blue unheated natural sapphire from Nigeria is faceted in a fantasy cut oval design. It has a perfect amount of slight opalescence, and coupled with the lovely green-blue coloring really reminds us of the aurora borealis. It presents as mostly blue tones in natural light, with more yellow tones being visible in indoor/artificial lighting. This listing includes a GIA certification for this gemstone. This is one of my favorite and most exceptional sapphires I've ever had the pleasure to work on. Weight - 2.54 Measurements - 9.82mm x 7.10mm x 3.91mm Natural sapphire. The rough was sold to me as Nigerian origin. The GIA report states Basalt Related origin, which supports the Nigerian origin claim.
