We like this cut Arya, it's a real performer w/ close to zero tilt window. Would make great earrings! Thanks!

Akhavan. Not Arkhaven :D

Dioptase , Over here people think Kashmir sapphire usually have color centers placed at or close to culet with rest of the body colorless but face up they get even distribution. I wanted to see if such was the case with your stone ; maybe you can describe it ?

Pls remember to show us your next Kashmir from pav side as well :)

The color was evenly distributed in this one.

If I ever see another nice Kashmir; I will take more pictures for sure!

Rockahula!

4.66 ct. Top green Zircon!

I had this stone re-cut from 5.60 ct. Dan Stair did a great job! Killer stone!

Will this be up for sale? You'll have to watch GemologyOnline Marketplace in the next several days to find out.
