The most impressive and sought-after color in the species. A bright and intense blue from a famous locale; the color here (as nearly always) is present with very strong zoning so the quality of the cutting is exceptional in that it concentrated and focuses the blue to fill the entire gem face-up. Tilt a bit to the side and you will see the colorless zone; a true credit to the cutter. Great stone and superb color.
