The Vivid Blue "Royal Blue" sapphire, a gemstone certified by C. Dunaigre, stands as an exquisite exemplar of fine jewelry. This cushion-shaped sapphire weighs 5.56 carats and showcases dimensions of 9.90 x 9.76 x 6.25 mm. Its remarkably transparent quality accentuates the purity expected of a gemstone of this caliber. Originating from Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this sapphire comes from a region renowned for producing gemstones with richly saturated hues and unparalleled clarity.
The cut of this sapphire is a mixed brilliant cut, a design expertly crafted to enhance the gemstone’s inherent ability to reflect light. This cut combines the techniques of step cut and brilliant cut, thus maximizing both brightness and fire. Every facet has been carefully shaped to optimize the light that enters the sapphire, allowing it to exhibit remarkable brilliance. When viewed at any angle, the intricate cut facilitates the transformation of even the subtlest light into dazzling displays of color. This enhances the already vivid color intensity of the stone, solidifying its reputation as a piece worthy of the term "Royal Blue."
Upon examination, the clarity of this sapphire is assessed as eye clean when evaluated at eye level, meaning no inclusions are visible to the naked eye. This clarity grade amplifies the sapphire's inherent beauty, allowing its deep blue hue to be showcased without distraction. What further distinguishes this sapphire is its excellent polish, which heightens its reflective qualities. The superior craftsmanship applied to polishing means the sapphire’s surface is smooth and reflective, contributing vastly to the overall luminosity and sparkle of the stone.
