0.73 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the heart of tropical Sri Lanka, where lush greenery meets sapphire-studded soil, our journey begins. This land, steeped in tradition and natural beauty, cradles one of Earth's most valuable treasures, the Ceylon sapphire. Mined from the depths of centuries-old deposits, each sapphire is a timeless testament to nature’s artistry, taking millions of years to form. Our exquisite 0.73 carat blue sapphire was carefully unearthed under the watchful gaze of skilled miners who, for generations, have preserved techniques that protect both the land and the gems in their pursuit. These local artisans, deeply connected to the earth, recognize each sapphire as a gift from nature that must be honored.

As the gem makes its way from the hands that unearthed it to head towards crafting, it retains its story, a mosaic of its unique formation journey. The dimensions, 5.77 x 5.81 x 2.69 mm, may seem mere numbers, but they tell the tale of nature’s precision and detail that our artisans at The Natural Sapphire Company value. With its round shape and mixed brilliant cut, this sapphire undergoes a transformation at our hands. Each cut is carefully planned and executed, revealing the stone's vibrant life force. Our obsession with precision ensures that the medium light blue hue is enlivened, offering a dance of color that shifts with every movement. This process highlights a clarity that is accented by the very slight inclusions, nuances that are seen only at an expert’s eye level, making each gem as unique as a fingerprint.

The craftsmanship applied to every facet of the gem is a celebration of elegance and time-honored skill, culminating in an excellent polish. This polish is not merely a shine but a window into the infinite depths of the sapphire, inviting its admirer to see into a world untouched by man until now. It's a reflection of inherent beauty protected through antiquity, one that collectors will find both spellbinding and historic. Our sapphire is more than a mineral ornament.
