The image shows a close-up, eye-level view of the "Star of India" sapphire displayed on a textured black surface. The sapphire is a light blue, cabochon-cut gemstone with a prominent six-rayed star (asterism) visible on its surface, caused by the mineral rutile inclusions. The gem is positioned to the right of center in the frame, casting a soft shadow to its left. In the foreground, a black placard with white text describes the sapphire. The visible text on the placard reads: "Star of India", "Corundum var. star sapphire", "563.4 carats", "Sri Lanka", and "Gift of J. P. Morgan". The lower portion of the placard also contains a partial line of text, "The spectacular Star of" and "it the largest gem-qu" and "for its well-defined". The background is a dark, textured surface, likely part of the display case or exhibit. There are no people clearly visible in the frame, though a hint of a hand is visible at the bottom right corner. The lighting is diffused, highlighting the gemstone and the text on the placard. This display is located at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, United States of America.
