3.09 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Buried beneath the verdant landscapes and the gentle undulating hills of Sri Lanka, once known as Ceylon, lies the cradle of a geological marvel that has captivated minds and adorned individuals for centuries. This extensive land, rich with history and shrouded in the mystique of time, is home to some of the most exquisite sapphires on the planet. Among this illustrious group is a remarkable gemstone that holds within it an untold story of creation spanning millions of years. It is none other than the breathtaking 3.09 carat transparent blue sapphire, painstakingly extracted from the heart of this ancient island.

Nature is adorned with many mysteries, but few can rival the captivating allure of a gemstone so vividly colored and flawlessly crafted within the embrace of Earth’s subterranean forge. Formed deep within the Earth's crust, the initial genesis of this sapphire began millions of years ago. Under unimaginable pressures and intense heat, conditions so precise and steadfast that they embody the very essence of patience, corundum minerals started to coalesce, bonding with a variety of elements. This transformative process assigned the sapphire its distinctive blue hue, the result of traces of iron and titanium. It is this unique combination of elements that paints the surface of the stone with a medium color intensity. Every facet of this sapphire mirrors the natural grandeur and meticulous geology of its origins.

Our 3.09-carat blue sapphire, with its cushion shape, pays homage to the natural and unyielding factors that have contributed to its formation. Coupled with a mixed brilliant cut, the sapphire unleashes an unparalleled sparkle and a dynamic play of light. This sophisticated cut capitalizes on its cushioning contours, bestowing the stone with maximum brilliance and an alluring depth. While the clarity grade of this sapphire is very slightly included, these microscopic inclusions are artist-intrigued fingerprints of nature, testifying to its authenticity and organic inception. When evaluated at customary eye level, such natural traits lend the sapphire a rich dimension, setting it apart from lab-created or substantially treated alternatives.
