0.79 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the heart of nature's canvas, amid lush landscapes and verdant terrains, lies the story of the Ceylon blue sapphire, a gemstone with a heritage as profound as the ancient lands from which it is unearthed. This particular gem, a beautiful transparent 0.79-carat blue sapphire, emerges from the rich soils of Sri Lanka, known throughout history as Ceylon. The island has long been revered as a sanctuary for some of the most captivating sapphires in the world, a cradle where these exquisite stones find their colors in perfect balance. The mineral-rich earth, drenched by monsoons and kissed by the tropical sun, whispers tales of its journey into the depths, where time and natural forces come together to create a treasure of enchanting beauty.

The shape of this sapphire is round, its dimensions precisely 5.51 x 5.51 x 3.25 mm, and every facet plays with light owing to a mixed brilliant cut that promises a symphony of sparkle. While examining its depths, one might encounter very slight inclusions, owing to its clarity grade evaluated at eye level. These subtle characteristics are what impart the gemstone with a character akin to famous gemstones from history. Consider how the Hope Diamond's imperfections whisper nature's secrets, how Cleopatra's emeralds reflected the tales of her era. Our blue sapphire shares in this heritage, connecting past to present as it skips across epochs, its intense color intensity as deep as emotions painted across history’s canvases.
