The founder of GTJ has left the Bangkok office in my care for the first time since his retirement, but it seems he wanted to dig a little deeper into Vietnam, where he had visited a while ago, and he sent me some gems from there to encourage me.

One of the interesting things about Vietnamese sapphires is that you can see the characteristics of each of their various origins, but this piece is an unheated sapphire that gives the impression of a Windsor sapphire.

Rubies and sapphires from Vietnam can have clear blue color pools in some areas, and this sapphire has a blue color pool shaped like a shark fin.

In the BEFORE state, there was a sparkling inclusion near the color pool, but by giving it a sharp Narika cut shape, we were able to successfully remove the inclusion while leaving the color pool intact.

I wanted the sharp sparkle emanating from the center to reflect the blue using the Narika cut, which means watch in Thai, and I'm glad that it turned out just as I intended.

It has a beautiful purplish pink color with a hint of blue, and gives off a strong, gorgeous sparkle that is typical of Vietnamese gemstones, which are known for their neon feel.

If you look closely, you will see that the colors are separated diagonally in a ratio of about 6:4, with some areas having a slight silkiness and others with a strong reddish color, which is interesting and gives you a sense of the Vietnamese character.

The shape is a cushion shape with sharp corners to minimize weight, and the crown side has a GTJ original table cube cut that adds variety to the sparkle of the Narika cut.

It has excellent fluorescence when exposed to UV light.

Please enjoy the exquisite finish of this Vietnamese sapphire, full of its fascinating qualities.
