A fabulous Ceylon sapphire. This top qualtiy natural sapphire is <xxx>ct. Ceylon sapphires are our favorite (and most sapphire connoisseurs). Noted for their exceptional quality, vivid color (not that dingy blue ink color that most sapphires display) and brightness. They typically have a "velvety" look to them, a silky appearance that is unique to this region.
Ceylon sapphires are referred as such becuase "Ceylon" is the former name of Sri Lanka, the island nation where these exquisite sapphires are found. The term "Ceylon" was used during the period of British colonial rule and remained in use until 1972, when the country officially adopted the name Sir Lanka. Ceylon has been reknowned for its high quality gemstones for over 2,000 years.
Top quality Ceylon sapphires have doubled in value since 2018, (in some cases more than that!) There just is not much top end rough sapphire found there now. We estimate the values will continue to increase faster than most other gems.
The sapphire was purchased from a local cutter in Sri Lanka, then recut in the United States by a master gemcutter. Why? Most colored gems that are cut and faceted in their native countries are not cut to ideal standards. Many of the cutters at these locations use rudimentary equipment, and are cutting to yield maximum gem weight - not maximum beauty. So most all of the top end sapphires sold to the public in the U.S., should be re-cut to maximize the gems beauty, as this one was.
Sapphires look great surrounded by bright white diamonds; framed in by them. Seems to highlight the gorgeous blues having the brilliant sparkle of white diamonds next to them.
The ring has <xxx> ctw of top end, VS clarity, G-H color, natural diamonds. We love the way the shank pinches near the halo - it draws attention to the sapphire / diamond halo as the center piece. The edges have vintage-styled milgrain details.
A beautiful ring, fit for a princess.

We ordered a
custom wedding
band for my
fiancé and had a
great experience
from start to
finish! They
were super
helpful and
checked in with
us all
throughout the
process. We had
a very specific
vision in mind
for the ring and
they made it
very easy to
create exactly
what we were
looking for. It
didn’t take long
to receive the
ring once we
placed the
order. They even
shipped it to us
with a hand
written card
thanking us for
our business
which was really
sweet!
