Sapphires Worthy of A New Decade

As we find ourselves in a decade only a month and a half old, we wanted to share some amazing sapphires that were recently entered into our inventory.

24.27 carat of Ceylon Star Sapphire - Here is a pair of significant blue star sapphires. Each gem on its own is a rarity, as matching pair this is a miracle. Both gems come with an exquisite fine Ceylon blue, one star (11.94) is simply perfect, the other one (12.33) is pretty close to perfect. Face up the two gems barely deviate in size (less than a half millimeter). Both gems actually stand upright without help, that is how symmetric and centered they are (most stars in this shape roll over).

1.93 carat Ceylon Sapphire - lightly toned heart shaped stone in a cool blue with a silky violet glimmer.

2.42 Carat Ceylon Sapphire - Big clean untreated sapphires are not easy to find!

2.50 carat Ceylon Sapphire - This rich golden cognac is surprising in its depth of color.

1.51 carat Ceylon Sapphire - Fresh cool blue, not flowery violet as in classical cornflower-blue but rather the blue of a northern sky.

.5 carat Kashmir blue Burmese Sapphire

1.99 carat African Sapphire - Dense green trillion cut sapphire.

2.04 carat purplish baby pink African Sapphire
