Sri Lanka is a classic source of Star Sapphire and we love seeing what is still being produced - this one is of the desaturated bodycolor types with a magnificent asterism. This is often the case, but typically the color is closer to white and not always so attractive. Here, the grey-blue/violet shade is background to a laser sharp star that moves and does all the tricks - including easily induced multiple stars. Great shape and no wasted weight on the bottom.
