5.43 Ct. Violet Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the lush, verdant landscapes of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, the journey of a remarkable sapphire begins. Beneath rich layers of earth, amidst the vibrant flora and gentle sounds of undulating streams, lies a gemstone of extraordinary promise. This land is renowned for producing some of the world's finest sapphires, each imbued with centuries of geological artistry. It is here, under the island's gentle sun, where our 5.43 carat oval-shaped violet sapphire first laid hidden, cradled by nature and nurtured into a gem of exceptional beauty. Certified by the Gemological Institute of America, this sapphire embodies the harmonious collaboration between the earth's raw power and the skilled hands that eventually reveal its true form.

From its origin as a mere rough stone, this sapphire undergoes a meticulous transformation. The selection process is entirely guided by an understanding of the inherent potential locked within its core. Skilled artisans, part of a storied tradition, meticulously cut and polish the stone, each facet carefully considered and crafted. The result is a mixed brilliant cut, a design calculated to enhance the stone's natural qualities and optimize its inherent light play. Upon completion, the gem dazzles with an array of colors, its geometric faceting allowing light to dance across its surface in a spectacular array of brilliance and fire. It is this breathtaking display that captivates the eye, drawing one into the depths of the sapphire's vibrant heart, where its intense color intensity and very slight inclusions, evaluated perfectly at eye level, become part of its unique story.
