Colour and Clarity: According to Gübelin and GRS reports, the oval sapphire is natural, of Burmese origin, with no indications of heating.

In our opinion, the sapphire is of medium strong blue colour, eye clean, with nice brilliance. Upon 10x loupe, there are some minor silks and fingerprint inclusions, not seen to naked eyes. Diamonds are about E to F colours, VS clarity.
