2.78 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Thailand

From the mines of ancient lands to the crowns of rulers, sapphire has always been a stone of conviction and continuity, and this magnificent 2.78 carat oval shape blue sapphire carries that timeless legacy into the present. Measuring 10.30 x 7.52 x 3.68 mm, the stone is faceted in a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes fire and depth, while an excellent polish ensures each facet catches light with a calm, measured radiance. The deep, dark color intensity evokes images of midnight and velvet, a hue long favored by royalty and clergy alike, and the clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level confirms a gem that is both visually pure and naturally alive. Originating from Thailand and enhanced by traditional heat treatment to reveal its full character, this sapphire is an honest and authentic expression of nature refined by skilled hands.

When fashioned into a ring, pendant, or bespoke piece, this sapphire becomes more than jewelry, it becomes an heirloom. Corundum, the mineral family to which sapphire belongs, is one of the hardest of gemstones, and with thoughtful settings and care this stone will endure for generations, accumulating stories and meaning with each passing year. Imagine a wedding band set with this oval sapphire, worn at celebrations and quiet mornings, then passed from parent to child who wears it to mark their own milestones.
