5.23 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Thailand

When you are searching for the perfect sapphire to mark a lifetime moment, or to add a rare and beautiful specimen to a discerning collection, this 5.23 carat oval blue sapphire answers that search with clarity and confidence. You want a stone that reads true in size, presence, and personality, and this gem delivers on all three counts. At 12.69 x 9.88 x 4.85 mm the proportions are elegant yet substantial, the oval silhouette flattering in solitaire and halo settings alike, and the mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to balance surface brilliance with depth of color. The gem is transparent, evaluated as very very slightly included at eye level, and has an excellent polish that lets those facets sing. For anyone whose priority is a combination of beauty, durability, and a sense of rarity, this sapphire stands as the perfect solution.

Color is the soul of a blue sapphire, and this stone carries a dark color intensity that reads as deep, pure blue with cool undertones that remain versatile and timeless. The mixed brilliant cut enhances this depth, creating a lively play of light across the top facets while preserving the stone s rich saturation. Heat treatment is disclosed as the enhancement applied, a well understood and accepted practice in the trade that stabilizes and improves color without compromising the stone s natural structure. Origin matters to collectors and connoisseurs, and this sapphire hails from Thailand, a source known for producing gems with strong, desirable shades of blue. The clarity grade, very very slightly included when viewed at eye level, means the inclusions do not distract from the gem s visual appeal, and the excellent polish ensures maximum surface sparkle. The result is a gem that reads immediately as premium, whether mounted for daily wear or kept as part of a curated collection.

From a design and craftsmanship perspective, this sapphire is an ideal candidate for a bespoke engagement ring, an anniversary jewel, or a showcase piece for a cabinet of rare stones. The dimensions and mixed brilliant cut allow designers to craft settings that either accentuate the gem s deep color with open crowns and light enhancing galleries, or to emphasize its presence with a halo of diamonds for contrast. Because the stone is transparent and finely polished, it will communicate luxury even in minimalist settings, and because it is a substantial 5.23 carats, it will hold its own as a solitary focal point. At The Natural Sapphire Company we work closely with clients to translate the character of a stone into a setting that honors both its natural qualities and the wearer s personal style.
