1.33 ct Blue Sapphire-Color Change - Cushion

At 1.33 carats, this color-change sapphire from Sri Lanka carries its blue color through a cushion cut, measuring 6.5 x 5.1 x 4.3 mm.

As a member of the corundum family, sapphire pairs deep color with a hardness that makes it one of the most durable choices for a ring worn every day. Sri Lankan sapphire is hand-picked from river gravels worked for two thousand years, and the island's signature is bright, glassy color with high transparency. It is entirely untreated; no heat, no enhancement, the color exactly as the earth made it.

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 photographed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
