Saphiret is a rare antique glass prized for its unusual color-shifting effects. A warm, coppery-pink glow seems to emerge from within cool blue glass, with flashes of lavender and smoky violet as the light changes. The colors appear to occupy different depths within the glass, if that makes sense. Cushion cuts intensify this; the facets catch and reflect the contrasting colors. 

Anyone watching My Brilliant Career? I feel like the main character would wear these.
