SAPPHIRE BLUE    | Chemical properties: 
      corundum is composed of pure alumina; its colouring is due to metallic |   | oxide traces or inclusions. The color of sapphire, due to iron and titanium oxide, gives its best |   |    | effect under daylight.  Electric light makes it often dark. |   | Gems are generally found in alluvium, but come either from basaltic slags, or from metamorphized
            marble. |  |   |  |     |  |   |  | 5.78 cts. Oval blue sapphire single |   |  |  |     |   |  | x | Pieces: |  | 1 Sapphire | x | x | Type: |  | Genuine |   |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |   |  | Color: |  | Royal
