Ceylon Sapphires

Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is famed for producing some of the world’s most sought-after sapphires, offering diverse colors from vivid blues to striking purples.

Madagascan Sapphires

These sapphires are gaining recognition for their unique color range and exceptional clarity. We bring you the best Madagascar has to offer.

Why Choose Untreated and Unheated Sapphires?

Choosing untreated and unheated sapphires means you’re selecting a gemstone in its most natural form. These sapphires retain their original character, with no enhancements to their color or clarity, making them more valuable and rare.

• Unheated gemstones are particularly rare, as most sapphires undergo heat treatment to enhance their color. Opting for an unheated gemstone allows you to own a piece of nature in its purest form.

How to Buy a Sapphire: The Buying Process

Before purchasing your sapphire, consider the following:

• Gemstone Color: Choose based on your personal preference, from deep blues to light greens, yellows, and purples.
• Clarity: Higher clarity stones are rare, but even sapphires with minor inclusions can be beautiful and more affordable.
• Cut: Precision-cut sapphires display exceptional brilliance. From cushion cuts to oval and emerald cuts, select the shape that best complements your jewelry design.
