Star Sapphire Ring-14K White Gold-Estate Blue-Size 4.5-Unique Asterism-Illusion

Featuring a star sapphire ring set in 14K white gold. A star sapphire is a kind of sapphire that shows an opaque six-rayed star when exposed to direct light. The unique optical phenomenon is known as asterism; the star is created by light refracting off of strands of rutile present in the gemstone. These inclusions make star sapphires not translucent, unlike other sapphires. The star moves slightly following the relative position of the light source. Some of the ancient meanings these gemstones acquired related to protection from illness and evil. -Color: Estate Blue -Ring is 2.7g -Sapphire is approximately 8mm x 6mm / 1.55 ct -Size: 4.5 -Presidium gemstone tested Band Width- 1.7mm **Please note…The item featured is not new…it is pre-owned and therefore may have some imperfections such as scratches on the metal.
