Description
This gorgeous unheated Ceylon sapphire is a beautiful light cornflower blue–one of the most desirable hues for a sapphire. 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. There is one tiny crystal inclusion visible in macro photos, but it is not visible without a loupe–this is an eye-clean gemstone. Large clean unheated sapphires like this one are quite rare! It comes with a Gemological Institute of America report indicating that it is natural and untreated and with their opinion that the origin is Sri Lanka (Ceylon). The report number and our logo and internal SKU number are both laser-engraved on the girdle.
The sapphire was originally cut in Sri Lanka but has been recut to improve the brilliance; the shape is best described as a rectangle cushion or rectoval. It weighs 4.17 carats and measures 9.8 x 7.7 x 5.9 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!
