1.45 ct Blue Sapphire - Round

This 1.45-carat sapphire is cut as a round measuring 5.5 x 3.4 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. Its color was brought up by heat, a legitimate and accepted practice that the trade discloses and we disclose here.

One of a kind, it exists exactly once; there is no second example to size up or down. It is the rarer object, and the kind of gemstone that becomes an heirloom. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
