1.28 ct Blue Sapphire - Round

At 1.28 carats, this sapphire from Sri Lanka carries its blue color through a round cut, measuring 6.6 x 4 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. Sri Lanka's gravels are read by miners whose skill is generational, and a stone that reaches the cutter has already beaten long odds. It is heated, a standard and stable treatment that we disclose plainly, the way an honest seller should.

A single natural gemstone with no duplicate behind it; once it is set or collected, there is no other. It will outlast everyone who owns it, which is most of what an heirloom really is. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
