Tracing back over the centuries, Ceylon sapphires have garnered a reputation for their unparalleled quality and unmistakable hue, setting them apart on the global stage. The coloring of our sapphire reflects the warmth and vitality that is synonymous with gemstones found only in this storied land. Its medium intense color dances between notes of vibrant canary yellows and softer sunsets, bridging the gap between the vivid saturation of Kashmir sapphires with their intense blues, and the legendary pinkish-orange glow of Padparadscha sapphires. Unlike the rich dark tones of Madagascar’s sapphires or the delicate pastels hailing from the peaks of the Mogok Valley in Myanmar, this Ceylon gem radiates a warm, inviting glow with a clarity that assures undiluted beauty uninterrupted.
