mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;\">Ovals and Cushions are the most popular cuts in Blue sapphires. As the complexity and fanciness quotient of the gem cut increases, so does the price but geometrically. A fancy cut requires sacrificing on the weight (quite a bit of caratage is lost to the shape and therefore the escalated cost)! Among the oval and cushions too, a cushion cut gem fetches a better price than an oval. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;\">The cut impacts the brilliance of the gem in the biggest manner. Master cutting of gem ensures best play of light in a gem. If the cutter errs on cutting, especially vis- -vis the critical angle the light will leak away and neither the brilliance, nor the color of the gem is optimally displayed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Cambria','serif'; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;\">2.
