0.76 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the heart of the verdant hills of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, lies a storied tradition of gemstone craftsmanship and discovery. This is where our beautiful 0.76 carat cushion-shaped blue sapphire was unearthed, a region celebrated through the centuries for sapphires of magnificent clarity and unparalleled quality. The allure of this particular gemstone is owed to its stunning transparency, expanding across dimensions of 5.52 x 4.50 x 3.46 mm, a dainty token of the earth’s heart, transformed through relentless currents of geological time. The sapphire’s origins in Ceylon infuse it with historical significance, a stone born of ancient volcanic affinities, now brought forth by the skilled hands of craftsmen who have perfected their artistry across generations.
