0.70 Ct. Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The exquisite 0.70 carat blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is a masterpiece of nature's brilliance, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of gemstone heritage. This emerald cut sapphire, with dimensions of 5.99 x 3.91 x 2.98 mm, hails from the legendary mines of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, a region renowned for producing some of the world's most revered sapphires. Celebrated for their majestic allure, Ceylon sapphires have captivated connoisseurs for centuries, rivaling the gemstones from Kashmir and Burma in their storied histories and allure. Our sapphire's vivid color intensity captures the eye with a lively azure reminiscent of a clear summer sky at twilight, a hue that stands in contrast to the deeper velvety blues of Kashmir sapphires and the striking royal shades found in Burmese stones.

What sets this sapphire apart, apart from its origin, is its exceptional clarity grade of 'very slightly included,' allowing light to dance within its depths unimpeded. Evaluated at eye level, it offers a pristine view into the gemstone's pure essence, a testament to its excellent natural formation. Its exceptional polish further enhances its appeal, displaying the intricate artistry that emerges when skilled craftsmanship meets natural splendor. The emerald cut, known for its elegance and precision, shapes the sapphire into a timeless piece that echoes the grandeur of classic design, providing a window into a world where history and modernity coexist.
