In the lush landscapes of Ceylon, known today as Sri Lanka, where rainforests echo with the whispers of ancient lore and rolling hills are cloaked in verdant tea plantations, the earth nurtures a rare gem. It is here, under the golden sun and amidst rich, fertile soils, that the beautiful transparent purple sapphire takes its first breath. Ceylon is renowned for producing some of the most exquisite sapphires in the world and this particular gemstone embodies the region’s legacy of exceptional quality and craftsmanship.
