Sapphire Description

This exceptional 7.16 carat unheated blue sapphire, expertly cut in a timeless cushion shape, is a remarkable choice for a bespoke jewellery piece or a distinguished investment. Its rich, velvety blue hue evokes the depth and prestige often associated with a fine Ceylon Sapphire. The generous proportions and softly rounded corners of the cushion cut enhance its presence, while maintaining elegance and balanced symmetry.

Unheated sapphires are highly sought after for preserving their natural colour and clarity without enhancement. Much like a celebrated Ceylon Sapphire, this gemstone displays luminous transparency and impressive saturation, allowing its true character to shine. The careful faceting maximises brilliance, producing refined flashes of light that complement the stone’s depth rather than overpower it.

With its exceptional clarity and commanding size, this sapphire is perfectly suited to a statement ring or an extraordinary engagement design. Comparable in rarity to an important Ceylon Sapphire, it offers both aesthetic magnificence and strong investment appeal. Ethically sourced and meticulously selected, this remarkable gem embodies luxury, authenticity, and enduring value, making it a standout addition to any fine jewellery collection.

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.

Certification

All our sapphires come certified, guaranteeing authentic natural sapphires from Sri Lanka. This will come in the form of a certificate on delivery of the sapphire. 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

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.
