| GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: | This premium saffire, notable for its beautiful red-orange to orange-red hue and excellent clarity, is appraised in the Fair Market Value range of approximately USD 1,200 to USD 1,500. Its unique handcrafted cushion cut, along with its unheated nature, enhances its desirability and market appeal, making it a valuable addition to a collection. Considering the 1.44 carat size, vibrant color, and exquisite cut, this Sri Lanka Ceylon Sapphire may not be the best investment asset, as larger, more vivid stones typically appreciate more significantly.
