Treatment Disclosure
Heat treatment disclosed. This sapphire has been heat-treated — a permanent, stable enhancement applied to the great majority of sapphires on the world market, and accepted trade practice when disclosed. Ministry of Gems discloses it here in full. Independent laboratory verification can be arranged on request before purchase.
✓ Assessed in-house by our FGAA gemmologist
100% natural, earth-mined stone. As company policy we do not sell synthetic or man-made gemstones. Where a stone is heated, this refers to traditional heat treatment of a natural stone — it never means the stone is artificial.
