Description
Natural Ceylon Blue Sapphire are a rare, intense blue color. They’re also known as “Cornelian” and the name comes from the country Sri Lanka where they were first discovered. The intense blue of these gems is due to their high concentration of iron oxide, which gives them their unique hue. The price of natural blue sapphire depends on the size and certification level. For example, a 1 carat gemstone that is certified by GIA (Gemological Institute of America) will cost more than an uncertified one. Cleaning your natural Ceylon blue sapphire is simple. Use warm water and mild detergent to clean it, then dry with soft brush. Store away from direct sunlight and heat sources as these can damage the stone’s color over time.
To choose the right natural Ceylon blue sapphire, you should:
- Check the color and clarity of the gemstone.
- Ask about the return policy.
- Check for imperfections such as cracks or fractures in its structure.
There are two types of natural Ceylon blue sapphires:
- Type 1: Light to dark blue
- Type 2: Darker shade
What Are the Different Cut Styles of Natural Ceylon Blue Sapphire?
Round-cut
The round cut is the most popular shape for sapphires, and it’s also the easiest to identify. It’s a simple, symmetrical shape that looks like a tear drop with rounded edges. The size of your stone will determine how large or small it looks in comparison to other stones in your jewelry piece.
Cushion or Princess Cut
This is another common shape for sapphires, but unlike round ones they have more depth and dimension than their flat counterparts. Cushion cuts are good if you want something that can show off more color than typical round stones without being too large on your finger (or wrist). Emerald Cut
Emeralds are known for their deep green color–and this applies even when we’re talking about blue gems!
