Lab Created Blue Star Sapphire Titanium Stud Earrings
Fascinating
Brilliance! This stone is reminiscent of the vintage “Lindy” synthetic
Star Sapphire of the 50s thru 70s. The star effect, known as an
“asterism”, is more defined in a lab-grown Sapphire. They are identical
in chemical composition, brilliance, and physical appearance as their
natural counterpart, however they have fewer flaws, are not mined from
the ground, and are much less expensive. They are an extremely durable
stone with a Mohs scale hardness or 9 (a Diamond is 10).
Stones
are mounted in Grade 23 Hypoallergenic Titanium bezels. They are
extremely durable and the post is "bend proof". 6mm is about the size of
a large green pea (Please see reference photos).Shipped in gift box.
Please note
that the star effect or "asterism" of a Star Sapphire, is not a fixed
element. It is the result of direct light, artificial or natural. The
brighter the light source, the brighter the star display. In low light
or shaded settings the star will be less visible. All photos are taken
with direct light.
Comes with two sizes of Titanium backs for preference.
