Corundum var. Sapphire Statesville, Iredell Co., North Carolina 3.55cm x 2.9cm x 2.05cm Ex. Albert Peppis Collection No. B-181

Description/Interesting Notes: A terrific old time example of pink sapphire/ruby from North Carolina!!! This specimen consists of a single crystal of light pink sapphire that exhibits a fascinating pattern of concentric rings as well as a flashing chatoyance!!! The crystal appears to have been cut (although under magnification they appear to be possibly natural?) to show off this attractive feature!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! This specimen is from the Albert Peppis Collection and retains its original label!!!
