    Well from a gemological standpoint it isn't the case. From a
    realistic standpoint, while all of my sapphires would probably fall
    into those criteria, the vast majority of stones out there don't. Of
    all of the customer's stones (that I didn't sell them) I have worked
    with over the years (and it's been a lot) I would say that less than
    1% would actually be what you are describing.
