1.51 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Deep within the lush landscapes of Sri Lanka, known as Ceylon for centuries, lies an ancient mystery waiting to be unearthed. This tropical paradise, rich in both history and natural bounty, is where our exquisite journey begins. Beneath the verdant canopy of rainforest, far from the whispers of the modern world, lie the intricate veins of precious minerals. Here, over thousands of years, extraordinary forces of nature have given birth to one of its most resplendent treasures—a brilliant blue sapphire. This gemstone, with its roots firmly in the heart of Ceylon, captures not only the beauty of the land but also the soul of a storied island.

As artisanal miners skillfully navigate the labyrinth of earth below, each sapphire is discovered like a secret long hidden. Such dedication to their craft ensures that only the most outstanding gems are chosen for their journey ahead. Our sapphire, cradled by the earth through the ages, is carefully unearthed in its natural state. Dusty at first glance, it already possesses a promise of splendor. This sapphire is on a path from its rough form, an unpolished entity, to something with the power to captivate and inspire. Our artisans, with time-honored techniques passed down through generations, unveil its luminous heart, transforming earth's ancient craft into a gemstone of impeccable clarity and brilliance.
