1.78 Ct. White Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Deep in the verdant heart of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, nature cradled an extraordinary treasure in silence and secrecy. Beneath the emerald canopy and among layers of ancient rock lay a beautiful white sapphire, waiting patiently to be discovered. This gemstone, with its ethereal beauty and timeless allure, embarked on a transformative journey from its rugged birthplace to its polished form in the skilled hands of artisans. Its story begins in the geological wonders of a land famed for producing the world's most captivating sapphires, echoing tales of ancient rivers and landscapes shaped over millennia. In the quiet dawns and dusks of Sri Lanka, miners, with generations of expertise and knowledge, delicately extracted the raw sapphire crystal. Guided by the natural rhythms of the earth, they recognized the potential and promise held within its core.
