Sapphire Description
This exquisite 6.12 carat unheated blue sapphire, expertly cut in a classic oval shape, is a remarkable choice for a bespoke jewellery creation or a prestigious investment. Its rich, velvety blue hue reflects the depth and purity often associated with a fine Ceylon Sapphire. The generous proportions and elegant outline give the stone commanding presence, while its natural, untreated status enhances both rarity and desirability.
Unheated sapphires are especially prized for preserving their original character, allowing their true colour and clarity to shine without enhancement. Much like a distinguished Ceylon Sapphire, this gemstone displays luminous transparency and impressive saturation, creating a refined balance between intensity and brilliance. The oval cut maximises light return, producing graceful flashes that move beautifully across the surface.
Its impressive size makes it ideally suited to a statement ring that exudes sophistication and quiet luxury. Comparable in prestige to an exceptional Ceylon Sapphire, it offers both aesthetic magnificence and long-term investment appeal. Whether set in platinum or rich yellow gold, it commands attention while maintaining timeless elegance.
Ethically sourced and carefully selected, this rare gemstone represents enduring beauty and intrinsic value. Designed to be cherished for generations, it stands as both a remarkable adornment and a lasting heirloom.
Imaging Accuracy
Imaging Accuracy
We understand that it can be hard to assess loose sapphires colours from photos alone. All our images and videos are taken by a specialist gemstone imaging company who produce images to 99% colour accuracy with ISO standard natural daylight in high magnification. This ensures you will get the best view for colour, clarity and any visible inclusions.
Whilst this is the most accurate representation of the stones colours, sapphire colours vary depending on the lighting conditions.

Certain stones may include extra certification by GIA or SSEF Switzerland, this will be highlighted in the description. Please do contact us if you wish to discuss any certifications.
Clarity Rating
Clarity Rating
While some sapphires can appear "eye-clean" (meaning no inclusions are visible to the naked eye), most natural sapphires do contain inclusions, which are considered natural characteristics and not necessarily flaws.
Our sapphires are graded in the below format:
Eye-Clean: This is the highest clarity grade for sapphires, meaning no inclusions are visible to the naked eye.
VVS (Very Very Slightly Included):These sapphires have very, very small inclusions that are difficult to see even under 10x magnification, and they typically appear eye-clean.
VS (Very Slightly Included):These sapphires have minor inclusions that are clearly visible under 10x magnification, but they might be difficult to see with the naked eye.
SI (Slightly Included):These sapphires have noticeable inclusions that are easy to observe under 10x magnification, and some may be visible to the naked eye.
I (Included):These sapphires have obvious inclusions that are easily visible under 10x magnification and may affect transparency and brilliance.
