Description

The specimen is developed as floater, all edges are sharp terminated, the faces are all lustrous and show a very attractive texture. The specimen has a silhouette of a dolphin - a Flipper-Sapphire! I showed the specimen under daylight and on a second image with minor backlight - the color is the darkest and most intense blue you can imagine for Sapphire.
It looks great in various positions, it is in excellent condition damage-wise, it represents Sapphire in the very best way and the dimension with 41mm is very impressive, weight is 45 carat! Ex Manfred Henkel Coll.
