2.39 ct Blue Sapphire - Round

At 2.39 carats, this sapphire from Sri Lanka carries its blue color through a round cut, measuring 6.4 x 4 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 Lanka has produced fine sapphire in every color for two thousand years, prized for transparency and life in the stone. Its color was brought up by heat, a legitimate and accepted practice that the trade discloses and we disclose here.

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.
