Description
This lovely heated Ceylon sapphire is a bright yellow color. Sri Lanka (formerly called Ceylon) is famous for its gemstones, especially sapphires. The government has maintained regulation over mining to prevent large-scale environmentally destructive mining from occurring, encouraging small-scale artisanal mining. The same applies to their gem cutting industry, with many small artisanal gem cutters working in the country, often having done so for generations within a family.
This sapphire is eye clean and has been heated to improve the clarity. There is a pair of internal feathers that are visible in the macro image, but they are not visible in the hand without a 10x loupe. The sapphire was faceted in Sri Lanka in a Portuguese-style round and is well cut. The gem weighs 1.12 carats and measures 6.3 x 3.5 mm. It would make the perfect gem for a unique engagement ring!

Video Request
Although we do our best to take the highest quality images, sometimes it can be difficult to envision how it will look on your hand. We can take a video of up to four gems side by on the hand to help you compare them and see how they perform in daylight. Please provide the following information, and include the SKU numbers or links to the stones you would like to see a video of.
Please note that we don’t do 360-degree videos as colored gems are optimized to be viewed face up, and because the current technology is such that none of the 360-degree systems we have tested provides the accurate color. Our desire is to present the most honest and accurate color possible!
