Description
In 2007, there was a find of rubies and very unusual ruby-sapphire combination gems (both red/pink and blue) in Winza, Tanzania. While the rubies were the most desired gems mined here, I personally have a fondness for unusual gems–like this one, one of the unique particolored sapphires from this locality. The main body of the gem is a magenta pink although in some lighting it will show flashes of a more orangey-pink color. There are some striking patches and zones of a purple-blue color as well–that’s what makes this gem truly unique and one of a kind. This sapphire has slight inclusions that are just barely visible to the naked eye. The inclusions have been factored into the price, making this a great value for the size and color. While we didn’t have this gem heated, we have to assume it may have been heated right at the mine site, as many of these gems were.
This sapphire is faceted in our custom “Hyperbola” brilliant oval design, created and optimized for sapphire; the result is a glittering beauty of a gemstone. It weighs 1.38 carats and measures 7.2 x 6.1 x 4.4 mm, the perfect size for an engagement ring.

Video Request
Although we do our best to take the highest quality images, sometimes it can be difficult to envision how it will look on your hand. We can take a video of up to four gems side by on the hand to help you compare them and see how they perform in daylight. Please provide the following information, and include the SKU numbers or links to the stones you would like to see a video of.
Please note that we don’t do 360-degree videos as colored gems are optimized to be viewed face up, and because the current technology is such that none of the 360-degree systems we have tested provides the accurate color. Our desire is to present the most honest and accurate color possible!
