Royal Blue Ceylon Sapphire (Demo)
Royal Blue Ceylon Sapphire (Demo)
This Royal Blue Ceylon Sapphire exemplifies the timeless elegance for which Sri Lankan sapphires have been revered for centuries. Its deep royal blue hue is distinguished by exceptional clarity and a refined brilliance that remains vivid across both natural and artificial light.
Hand-selected in Ratnapura, the historic heart of Ceylon sapphire production, this gemstone reflects a balance of purity, depth, and precision rarely found in modern commercial stones. The expertly executed cushion cut enhances internal light return while preserving the sapphire’s natural character and saturation.
Minimally treated using traditional heat methods only, this sapphire remains true to its origin — a collector-grade gemstone intended for bespoke jewelry, private collections, or heirloom creation.
This is not a trend-driven stone. It is a legacy gemstone.
