FAQs
What is a black star sapphire?
A black star sapphire is a variety of sapphire that shows a star-shaped light effect (asterism) caused by inclusions within the stone. The star becomes visible under direct light.
Are black star sapphire gemstones natural?
Yes, all black star sapphire gemstones at GemSelect are natural. Any treatments, if present, are clearly disclosed for full transparency.
Why are star sapphires cut as cabochons?
Cabochon cutting enhances the visibility of the star effect. Faceting would disrupt the asterism, so a smooth dome is preferred.
Is black star sapphire suitable for daily wear?
Yes, with a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, black star sapphire is durable enough for everyday jewelry such as rings and pendants.
What determines the quality of a black star sapphire?
Quality is based on the sharpness and symmetry of the star, body color, transparency, and overall appearance. A centered, well-defined star is most valuable.
Can I buy black star sapphire in calibrated sizes?
Yes, we offer a selection of calibrated black star sapphire gemstones suitable for standard jewelry settings, along with unique free-size stones.
