Comments: Sometimes referred locally as a nugget this sapphire was cut in the old traditional chain-cutting technique so commonly used in Asia until around 2020 when more articulated cutting became more available to cutters in Vietnam. Classy stone cut in Saigon by a master. Well-cut stone incredible colour.

Cotton Fibers are present statically clinging to the sapphire.
