What makes Ceylon Sapphires so special?

Sapphires from Sri Lanka are unmatched in their rarity, clarity, and variety. We provide Ceylon sapphires due to their unique composition, which is a result of Sri Lanka’s geological makeup, with ancient Precambrian rocks contributing to the vivid brilliance of the sapphires. Such geological conditions also allow Sri Lanka to produce a wide range of orange-pink (padparadscha), blue, yellow, pink, white and teal sapphires.

While a Ceylon sapphire would be the perfect piece for a collector, it ranks 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it a perfect choice for everyday wear. Many people wear them for their supposed metaphysical properties that are believed to bring clarity to the mind. Ceylon sapphires are unlike any other, and what’s more is that they hold historical significance and remain an integral part of Sri Lanka’s legacy. For 3000 years, Sri Lanka has been a leading source of sapphires on a global scale, with gems being used in monumental, high-profile jewellery. A well-known example is Princess Diana’s gorgeous Ceylon sapphire engagement ring.
