0.86 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

When it comes to selecting a gemstone that offers both enduring beauty and robust durability, the blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is a premier option. This exquisite 0.86 carat round shape blue sapphire distinguishes itself not only in appearance but also in quality and resilience. Its dimensions of 5.95 x 5.91 x 3.22 mm, coupled with its mixed brilliant cut, bring out an alluring sparkle that captivates the eye. Compared to other gems such as rubies and emeralds, this sapphire is particularly remarkable due to its vivid color intensity, a hallmark of top-quality sapphires originating from the famed gem-rich lands of Ceylon, now Sri Lanka.

Unlike many gemstones on the market, which may rank lower in durability, our sapphire shines in terms of hardness. Rated a solid nine on the Mohs scale, just below the diamond, which sits at a ten, this sapphire proves exceptionally hard. This remarkable hardness makes it highly resistant to scratches and everyday wear, ensuring that your sapphire retains its brilliance and form over time. Many other gemstones, unfortunately, do not possess this level of resilience, making them more susceptible to damage. Therefore, choosing this sapphire means selecting a gemstone that not only looks stunning but will continue to do so for many years to come.

Moreover, this sapphire's clarity grade of very slightly included signifies minimal inclusions, visible only under close inspection and not affecting the overall beauty to the naked eye. Other gemstones with similar appearances might contain noticeable inclusions detracting from their allure, meaning our sapphire stands out in delivering immaculate clarity. The meticulous craftsmanship is evident in the excellent polish, enhancing its luster to a magnificent sheen unmatched by many competing gemstones. Our dedication to craftsmanship at The Natural Sapphire Company ensures that each stone offers a superior visual appeal.

In terms of value, this sapphire offers an exceptional proposition because of its unparalleled combination of attributes. While other gems may offer one or two of these qualities, rarely do they combine such intense color, admirable clarity, superb cut, and exceptional toughness all in one piece. Sapphires from Sri Lanka are renowned for their superior quality, and owning a gem from such a prestigious origin adds prestige and worth to your collection. Each gem comes with authenticity, backed by our reputable standards at The Natural Sapphire Company, ensuring not just a purchase but a worthy investment.

The uniqueness of the sapphire cannot be overstated. Its origins from Ceylon imbue it with a special history and cultural significance, linking you to a tradition of expert gemological practices spanning centuries. The brilliant round cut highlights the sapphire’s natural splendor, each facet expertly angled to maximize the reflection and refraction of light. Clients will find few other comparable counterparts in the market offering such a harmonious blend of elegance and endurance. Suffice it to say, our sapphire embodies everything a truly extraordinary gemstone should, making it the logical choice for the discerning collector or someone seeking a statement piece with lasting impact.
