The beauty of this sapphire lies not only in its size and color but also in the expert craftsmanship that has rendered it a cut above the rest. The Asscher cut, known for its precision and symmetry, enhances the gemstone’s ability to reflect light. This cut is characterized by its large, step-cut facets that allow the stone to exhibit a hall-of-mirrors effect, capturing and reflecting ambient light to create an ethereal glow. The octagon shape provides an ample surface for light to interact with the stone, maximizing brightness and sparkle. This kind of cut is particularly advantageous for our greenish blue sapphire, as it accentuates the deep, vivid color intensity that characterizes this gemstone, allowing each facet to shimmer with striking clarity and brilliance.

Clarity is a crucial factor determining a gemstone’s value and appeal, and this sapphire boasts a clarity grade of "eye clean," evaluated at eye level. What this signifies is that upon inspection, the gemstone is devoid of any inclusions that may mar its beauty, visible to the naked eye. Such clarity is rare in natural gemstones, making this sapphire an extraordinary find for an educated buyer. The clarity, combined with the exceptional polish, ensures that the stone’s surface is immaculately smooth, further accentuating its ability to reflect light and appear luminous from every angle. With an excellent polish, the smoothness and the brilliance merge seamlessly, offering a gemstone that is both a visual and tactile delight.

Origin also plays a significant role in determining a gemstone's prestige. Ceylon, the birthplace of our exquisite sapphire, is famed for producing some of the world's most distinguished gemstones for centuries. The geological conditions in Sri Lanka are uniquely suited for forming sapphires with vibrant color saturation and superior quality, and our greenish blue sapphire is a prime example of the excellence associated with Ceylonese origins. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we emphasize sourcing our gems with transparency and integrity, ensuring that every gemstone we offer is ethically acquired and of the highest quality. Our dedication to excellence and reliability is why sophisticated collectors buy with confidence, knowing they add a gemstone of remarkable beauty and documented provenance to their collection.
