This is THE mother of all sapphire crystals. This was found in Mogok Burma, the legendary mines where the finest Burmese sapphires are found. This is literally for a museum. The size, color and quality of the crystal is irreplaceable. This is for a display piece of extraordinary value, we have never seen anything larger in a fine specimen such as this. This should be on a president's desk or collectors mantle under tight security! A monster paper weight for a KING!
This would be for a sapphire that is completely clean to the eye,but not neccesarily at 10X magnification.
"Insignificant Inclusions (VVS2)"
This is for our sapphires that have very, very little Visible(inclusions, seen) mostly from a side angle.
"Very Slightly Included (VS1, VS2)"
This would be for inclusions only slightly visible on close inspection, small internal crystals, but not serious at all in plain view.
"Lightly Included (SI2, SI1)"
This clarity grading will show some visible inclusions, they would not overpower the light or color in the sapphire, but are visible.
"Included (I, SI3)"
Inclusions are visible, they hinder the color and light reflection to varying extents.
