1.11 ct Blue Sapphire - Oval

This 1.11-carat sapphire is cut as an oval measuring 7.9 x 5.6 x 2.4 mm, with a blue body color, sourced from Nigeria.

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 carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

Its exact combination of color, cut, and origin is its own, the kind of center stone you choose on purpose and build a piece around. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
