0.70 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Deep beneath the Earth's surface, where heat and pressure converge in a dynamic geological dance, our exquisite blue sapphire began its extraordinary journey millions of years ago. Born from the monumental forces of nature, this 0.70 carat emerald cut gemstone has traversed an incredible path from isolated mineral deposits to a gemstone of remarkable purity and allure. Originating from Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, the sapphire has absorbed the nuanced elements of its environment, culminating in a jewel of unparalleled beauty and character.

The dimensions of this sapphire, measuring 6.12 x 4.20 x 2.77 mm, exemplify a precision cut that maximizes its inherent elegance. The emerald cut enhances its lustrous transparency, allowing light to dance across the stone's surface and illuminate its introspective depths. Its clarity grade, very slightly included, denotes a high level of purity, discernible with the naked eye only upon closer scrutiny. These minor inclusions whisper the history of its formation, harking back to an era when tectonic shifts and geological upheavals orchestrated its birth.

Erupting to life through volcanic-related activities, sapphires typically form in metamorphic rocks, particularly in sapphire-rich regions like Ceylon. This locale is renowned for producing sapphires of vivid hue and exceptional quality. The intense color intensity of this gemstone captures the deep, alluring blue that epitomizes the oceanic vibrance associated with Ceylon sapphires. The stone's notable saturation is a testament to the rich mineral composition found in Sri Lankan deposits, endowing it with a striking visual depth that seamlessly marries color and clarity.
