[BEFORE & AFTER Challenge]

Burmese sapphire, current condition 0.83ct

We are now introducing the BEFORE & AFTER challenge, unique to GTJ, which has been very well received, where we introduce the products in their BEFORE state, as they are when we receive them, and then cut them up after purchase and finish them into works of art.

This year is a peak sales week, and sapphire is the birthstone for September, so we decided to take on the challenge of buying a first-class lot of sapphires from Burma.

Although the color has a slight green feel, it is somewhere between royal and cornflower blue, which have stronger sparkles, so the finished product will most likely end up being one of two.

Currently it is a 0.83ct oval shape, and I am planning to remove the small inclusions near the table and the inclusions on the sides, and then turn it into a long octagonal Narika cut.

The goal for the finished product is 0.3 to 0.4 ct, and the normal listing price would be around 100,000 yen, but since this is a challenging campaign that requires a lot of courage as we don't know how the stone will turn out, we will be listing it at a special price of 50,000 yen.

This will be a rare challenge with the precious and expensive beautiful blue sapphire from Burma, so we hope you will be brave and take advantage of it.

This item is still in production, so it will take about 2 weeks from order to delivery. Thank you for your understanding.
