This sapphire has the exceptionally rare attribute of changing colors. Color change sapphires will show one color in fluorescent lighting and another color in incandescent lighting. Some color change phenomenon will have only a slight visual change, but a few rare and exceptional color-change sapphires occasionally come in red. They are found almost exclusively in Madagascar and Africa in very small quantities. The rarest of color change sapphires come primarily from Ceylon and Tanzania.
