It does seem like so to me..those light blue I see so far always have a gray tone to it..on a search for one that resemble clear water. Unheated, better so if its custom cut. mm..size 7mm and up. Can someone point me the right direction?? Thanx
Light blue doesn't always equal gray - light blue only means that the tone is light. The greater the saturation, the less gray it shows. Basically, you seem to be looking for a light toned blue sapphire but with at least medium to strong saturation. I haven't shopped for blue sapphires for a while so I'm not sure where's a good place to look other than Tan.
If tone is super light, or super dark for that matter, it will impede saturation. However, you should be able to find saturated gems in a medium light tone, and that includes sapphires.
