1.25 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the fertile soil and verdant landscapes of Ceylon, nestled in the heart of Sri Lanka, the journey of our luminous blue sapphire begins. For centuries, Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon, has been celebrated for producing some of the world's most exquisite gemstones. Amid the lush surroundings, miners carefully explore the earth, using generations-old techniques that preserve the natural environment while unearthing treasures hidden beneath its surface. It is within these historic lands that our beautiful 1.25-carat round shape sapphire was discovered, each step of its excavation handled with meticulous care and respect for the cultural traditions that surround this art.

As the sapphire embarks on its transformation from a raw gemstone to a refined masterpiece, it passes through the hands of skilled artisans whose craft has been honed over the ages. They embrace the challenge inherent in revealing the sapphire's inner brilliance, examining each facet meticulously to understand how best to catch the light. This particular stone boasts dimensions of 6.85 x 6.82 x 3.65 mm, embracing a mixed brilliant cut that enhances its ability to reflect an intense blue that captivates the heart. The artisans polish every surface to perfection, creating an excellent polish that allows the sapphire's natural allure to shine vividly, a testament to their commitment and artistry.
