Description
This gorgeous unheated Ceylon sapphire is a lovely pale blue color, so light blue that in some lighting it can appear almost colorless. 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. This sapphire was acquired directly from a mine owner in Sri Lanka and selected for maximum beauty and brilliance. The sapphire has very high clarity; the tiny crystal inclusions visible in the macro image are impossible to see without a loupe. The high clarity and pastel color make this a very bright gem in the hand.
The sapphire was originally cut in Sri Lanka but has been recut to improve the brilliance; it’s now unique custom rectangle cushion shape. It weighs 1.27 carats and measures 7.8 x 5.9 x 3.2 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!
