Star Sapphire, Natural Milk and Honey

About the Item

Milk & Honey Star Sapphire from Sri Lanka. This cabochon star sapphire is completely natural in color with no treatment or enhancement. Asterism in gemstones refers to a phenomenon where a star-like pattern appears on the surface of a gemstone when it is cut and polished. This effect is caused by the presence of needle-like inclusions within the gemstone, such as rutile or hematite. When light hits these inclusions, it is reflected in a way that creates a star-shaped pattern. The most famous example of asterism is seen in star sapphires, where a six-rayed star can be seen when the stone is viewed under a single light source. Other gemstones that can exhibit asterism include star rubies, star garnets, and star diopside. It's a fascinating optical phenomenon that adds a unique and beautiful touch to gemstones. Originally from San Diego, California, Kary Adam lived in the “Gem Capital of the World” - Bangkok, Thailand, sourcing local gem stones and working with local Metal Smiths on his designs from 2001 until August 2015. He now lives and works from Seattle Washington and make frequent trips to Thailand where he continues to source stones and execute most of his custom jewelry work.
