A nice, big, unheated sapphire that has an interesting color shift from being a light yellowish green in daylight that has a blue tint, to a stronger lime green under LED that looks a lot like Merelani mint garnet, and then shows a slight purplish undertone under incandescent light. It has some minor needles and such that you can see if you look closely under bright light, but they are generally not very noticeable and normal viewing distances.
