This explains the confusion that has been caused in respect of the color of this sapphire, which many websites have referred to as a black star sapphire.
The term “midnight” had been used to refer to black star sapphires as well as Mogok blue sapphires.
Perhaps it is the deep purple color that appears somewhat black that might have inspired the term. It is not known exactly what property of the stone inspired the term “midnight” to refer to this deep purple-violet stone. The Midnight Star Sapphire is a large deep purple-violet sapphire of Sri Lankan origin, belonging to the American Museum of Natural History, New York.
