The blue sapphire represents a long and storied tradition, reflecting the grandeur of royal courts and ancient civilizations. Our exquisite gemstone carries this legacy forward, a stunning transparent 0.80-carat round shape specimen from the storied isle of Ceylon, now Sri Lanka. Ceylon has long been heralded as the birthplace of some of the world's most extraordinary sapphires, and this gemstone is no exception.

The intense color intensity of this blue sapphire evokes the deep endless blue of a summer sky at dusk, a hue full of mystery and allure.
