Pricing of yellow Sapphire depends on its Color, Transparency, Luster and Cutting style. A Good Quality Yellow Sapphire should have prominent Yellow Color, fair transparency to allow light to pass through. A Good quality yellow sapphire should not look dull, it should have luster (shine) on its surface. Yellow Sapphire should be cut symmetrically in Oval, Rectangular, Cushion or Round shape.
