0.71 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the heart of the vibrant island of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, nestled amidst lush green landscapes and rugged terrains, lies the beginning of an extraordinary journey. It is here that our exquisite blue sapphire was born deep within the earth's embrace. Formed over millions of years, this magnificent gemstone captured the essence of celestial skies and tranquil ocean depths. The natural wonders of Sri Lanka, renowned for producing some of the world's finest gems, cradle these treasures with care, preserving their stories within each facet. In the secluded mines near Ratnapura, known fondly as the City of Gems, skilled artisans carefully unearthed this rare beauty. With every gentle stroke of the chisel, they revealed the sapphire's striking blue hue, reminiscent of a serene lagoon kissed by the sunlight.

This sapphire's journey did not end in the mines. Rather, it began anew each step of the way, metamorphosing from a rough crystal into a polished gem. Transported with precision, the stone was entrusted to the expert gem cutters who understood its true potential. These craftsmen, with traditions handed down through generations, committed themselves to shaping and refining the stone into the delicate 0.71 carat round blue sapphire now before you. Admiring its dimensions of 5.31 x 5.30 x 3.32 mm, one can appreciate the delicate balance maintained in its mixed brilliant cut, which brings forth its vibrant color with intense energy. The clarity grade, evaluated meticulously, reveals its almost pristine nature, whispering tales of the earth's artistry.
