5.27 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The journey of our exquisite 5.27-carat oval blue sapphire begins deep within the rich soil of Ceylon. Known today as Sri Lanka, this island nation is celebrated for its lush landscapes and prized gemstones. The sapphire was unearthed in an artisanal mine, an epicenter of sapphire discovery where earth's treasures are gently liberated. The gem in question reflects the island's innate richness and opulence, manifesting as a transparent stone of exceptional beauty and value.

Once extracted, the sapphire undergoes an initial examination and cleaning process. Expert hands carefully evaluate its potential, revealing a gem replete with vivid blue intensity. This is a sapphire whose clarity is classified as eye-clean, free from distracting inclusions that would catch the observer's eye. As the sapphire is handled, its dimensions of 12.29 x 9.71 x 5.02 mm earn appreciation, heralding a substantial presence for any gem aficionado.

The sapphire then enters the skillful hands of a master cutter who implements the mixed brilliant cut. This technique significantly enhances the stone's inherent luster. Brilliant facets provide an exquisite dance of light and color, ensuring maximum reflection and refraction and bringing out the vivid blue's depth and transparency. An excellent polish further elevates its surface quality, resulting in an impeccable and smooth finish, which becomes an intrinsic part of its allure.
