1.71 ct Blue Sapphire - Oval

At 1.71 carats, this sapphire from Sri Lanka carries its blue color through an oval cut, measuring 7.9 x 6.6 x 4.2 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. Its color was brought up by heat, a legitimate and accepted practice that the trade discloses and we disclose here. It is GIA-certified, and the report is available to view.

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.
