Deep in the verdant landscapes of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, lies the birthplace of a gemstone that has captured the imaginations of connoisseurs around the globe. This region is renowned for producing sapphires that dazzle with unparalleled depth and beauty. Our exquisite 0.70 carat blue sapphire originates from this storied terrain. As the early sunlight plays upon the dewdrops amid lush foliage, one can envision the formation of this gem over millions of years, shaped by the earth's own natural artistry. The intricate processes of intense geological conditions have granted this stone its enchanting hue and dazzling clarity, comparable even to the majestic splendor of the finest diamonds.

This sapphire, embracing a mixed brilliant cut, achieves a harmony of light and color that tantalizes the eyes.
