1.10 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the lush, verdant hills of Sri Lanka, known across the world as Ceylon lies the beginning of our sapphire's story. Here, where nature's palette paints the landscape with rich, vivid colors, both land and legacy birth some of the most remarkable gemstones found on Earth. The journey of this sapphire starts beneath the sunlit soil, nestled among mineral-rich grounds that have given life to countless stones over centuries. Local miners, whose skills have been honed from generation to generation, tirelessly search for these hidden treasures. It is within this shared cultural ritual of resilience and respect for nature that our unique blue sapphire first finds its way to human hands.

As the gentle tailings give way, revealing the sapphire's latent brightness, this 1.10 carat masterpiece begins its transformation. It possesses dimensions as balanced and refined as a prized spirit, each side measuring a precise 6.41 mm, with a depth of 3.65 mm. Craftsmen, guided by both heritage and innovation, preserve and enhance every intrinsic quality of the stone, ensuring it retains the narrative of its origins. With tools calibrated to precision, the sapphire undergoes the meticulous process of a mixed brilliant cut. Each facet, a window into its core, is coaxed into revealing a brilliance that dances with the deepest bluish hues, akin to the richness of the oceans themselves.

Beyond its physical attributes lies the poetry of its hue, an embodiment of strength and individuality that mirrors the inner resolve of those who choose it. Its medium intense color speaks softly yet with authority, a guiding beacon for personal empowerment and unique distinction.
