0.94 ct Blue Sapphire - Oval

At 0.94 carats, this sapphire from Nigeria carries its blue color through an oval cut, measuring 6.8 x 5.2 x 3.3 mm.

Sapphire is the gem form of corundum, second only to diamond in hardness among the classic gemstones, which is why it wears so well in jewelry worn daily. Nigeria is an increasingly important sapphire source, much of it fine enough to need no treatment at all. It is wholly untreated, its color finished by geology rather than by any furnace or enhancement.

No two of these line up the same way on color, cut, and origin at once, which is what makes choosing this one feel deliberate. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
