Among the countless gemstones unearthed from these fertile grounds, one stands out for its astonishing beauty and rarity: a transparent 1.64 carat cushion-shaped blue sapphire, destined to capture the imagination of those who behold it.

The journey of this remarkable gemstone began millions of years ago, when colossal forces of nature conspired beneath the Earth’s surface. Over epochs unmeasurable, extreme pressures and temperatures melded elemental minerals into this singular sapphire, endowing it with a vivid color intensity that mirrors the bottomless azure skies and the deep ocean surrounding its birthplace. Extracted from the renowned deposits of Ceylon, its origin speaks volumes about its unique qualities and the richness of the land it calls home.
