6.67 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This GIA certified, transparent blue sapphire weighs 6.67 carats and is cut in an elegant emerald shape with dimensions of 12.56 x 8.20 x 5.77 mm. The stone exhibits intense color intensity and an excellent polish, qualities that are immediately apparent in the way the broad step facets of the emerald cut present clean, uniform flashes of blue. The clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which for an emerald cut is an excellent clarity tier because this cut exposes the body of the stone and rewards a clean crystal with broad, even color. Importantly, the stone has no enhancement, which means the color and clarity are entirely natural and unaltered, a factor that appreciably increases value relative to heat treated or otherwise enhanced material. The GIA report provides independent verification of these attributes, giving the educated buyer reliable, documented assurance of weight, cut, clarity, treatment status, and identity.

The documented origin of this sapphire is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, and that provenance adds a meaningful premium in both aesthetic and market terms. Sri Lankan sapphires are historically prized for producing vibrant, lively blues with a certain clarity and brightness that differ from the deeper, velvety tones of other sources. From a gemological perspective, origin contributes to traceability and buyer confidence, and Ceylon stones are often sought after by collectors and investors for their distinctive hue and long established market desirability. For buyers looking for a center stone that combines eye appeal and long term value, this sapphire is ideal because it unites an outstanding natural color, high clarity at eye level, and no enhancement. The emerald cut makes it especially suitable for a refined solitaire or a classical three stone setting, where the step facets will emphasize color uniformity and the clean table will showcase the gem without distraction. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind the accuracy of the grading and the responsible sourcing of this piece, and we can provide the complete GIA documentation to support appraisal, insurance, or bespoke design decisions.
