The dimensions of this gem measure at 4.75 x 4.72 x 3.05 mm, showcasing a proportional symmetry that adds to its visual appeal. What sets this sapphire apart is its mixed brilliant cut, intricately designed to maximize light reflection and impart a dazzling brilliance that captivates the eye.
The color of this blue sapphire is best described as vivid, a term that underscores its exceptional intensity and depth. When compared to sapphires from famous locations such as Kashmir or Madagascar, Ceylon sapphires like this one are renowned for their rich, velvety blues. This particular gem exhibits a hue that effortlessly balances the deep azure typical of Kashmir sapphires and the lighter cornflower blue often seen in those from Madagascar. The careful faceting techniques applied enhance its vibrant saturation, making it a centerpiece in any jewelry setting.

The origin of this gemstone from the illustrious mines of Sri Lanka contributes significantly to its prestige. Sri Lankan sapphires are appreciated globally for their superior quality and exceptional color properties.
