Overall Dimensions approximately 48mm x 21mm Please Quote WS505 Sapphire belongs to the corundum family. There are a wide variety of colors: colorless, pink, orange, yellow, purple, black.
Yellow corundums are called yellow sapphires. Green corundums, green sapphires and colorless corundums are called leukosapphires.
The color of sapphires depends on the proportions of chromogenic elements in the chemical composition of the stone (titanium, iron, vanadium, chromium …).
Sapphires come from Sri Lanka (formerly called Ceylon), Burma, Thailand, Australia, Cambodia, Nigeria, Kenya Tanzania, China, India, Vietnam, Madagascar and the United States.
The most famous provenances for sapphire are Kashmir and Burma now called Myanmar.
The cashmere sapphire has a rich color, very slightly padded, highly prized by connoisseurs. The sapphires from Burma, from the same region which produces fabulous rubies, are also of very good quality. However, today these two provenances only account for a very small part of the stones on the market.
Most of the beautiful sapphires today come from Sri Lanka or Madagascar, producing a wide range of beautiful sky blue stones with rich saturated colors. Sri Lanka is also a very important producer of fancy sapphires like the famous Padparadsha (pink-orange). |
