A striking example of Vietnam’s unique sapphire production, this pear-shaped bicolor sapphire displays a dramatic division between deep inky blue and warm champagne. The contrast is sharp and natural, revealing the complex growth environment that produced this gem. Bicolor sapphires are uncommon, and Vietnamese material in particular is prized for its strong zoning and collector appeal
