0.71 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Choosing an engagement gemstone is not merely about selecting a piece of jewelry; it is about finding a symbol of enduring love and commitment. In a world where diamonds often take the spotlight, the blue sapphire offers a mesmerizing alternative that combines elegance, tradition, and exceptional quality. Our 0.71 carat oval-shaped blue sapphire is an embodiment of these qualities, setting itself apart as an ideal option for those who seek something truly unique for their engagement piece.

Crafted with precision, this sapphire measures 6.45 x 4.66 x 3.31 mm and boasts a mixed brilliant cut, enhancing its innate sparkle and radiance. Unlike many sapphires that compromise on clarity, this gem stands out with an "eye clean" clarity grade, meaning it is free from visible inclusions even when viewed at eye level. Such clarity is rare among colored gemstones, making this sapphire a testament to superior craftsmanship and a perfect choice for those who appreciate the finer things in life.

What sets this blue sapphire apart is its medium intense color intensity, which delivers a striking vibrancy unusual in many of today's market offerings. The rich hue is reminiscent of the deep ocean blue, evoking feelings of tranquility and profound beauty. This color is not only visually stunning but also deeply symbolic, representing loyalty and trust, ideal sentiments to convey through an engagement ring. Furthermore, the gemstone has undergone an excellent polish, adding an exquisite luster that presses its qualities into the ranks of high-end jewelry.

When selecting a gemstone for such a momentous occasion, provenance plays a critical role in its value and authenticity. The origins of this sapphire are in Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, a renowned source of some of the world's finest sapphires.
