Ceylon Natural Violetish Blue Sapphire – 3.17 ct Unheated Sapphire from Ratnapura, Sri Lanka
What Is a Ceylon Natural Violetish Blue Sapphire?
This 3.17 ct Ceylon Natural Violetish Blue Sapphire is a natural corundum sapphire from Ratnapura, Sri Lanka, one of the country’s most historically important gemstone-producing regions. Its transparent blue appearance, oval mixed cut and unheated status make it an interesting example of natural Ceylon sapphire.
The gemstone measures 9.33 × 7.32 × 5.45 mm and displays a blue body colour with distinct pleochroism. Its appearance can show subtle colour variation as the stone is viewed from different directions.
From Ratnapura, Sri Lanka
Ratnapura is internationally associated with Sri Lanka’s traditional alluvial gemstone industry. Natural sapphires recovered from Sri Lankan gem-bearing gravels have become an important part of the country’s coloured gemstone heritage.
For Danu Group, origin is not simply a marketing description. Understanding where a gemstone comes from is part of documenting its journey from source to finished stone.
Unheated Natural Sapphire
One of the notable characteristics of this sapphire is its unheated status. The GGTL report identifies the stone as Natural Corundum – Un-Heated Blue Sapphire. No heat treatment is indicated in the supplied laboratory report.
Unheated sapphires are particularly interesting to collectors because their colour and internal characteristics have not been modified through conventional heat treatment.
Laboratory Certification
The sapphire has been examined by GGTL – Global Gem Testing Laboratory, with advanced FTIR spectroscopy testing and origin determination indicated on the supplied documentation. The report provides important gemological information supporting the stone’s natural corundum and unheated blue sapphire identification.
Why Is This Sapphire Appealing?
Its 3.17 ct size, transparent appearance, oval mixed cut, VVS clarity, Sri Lankan origin and documented unheated status give it strong appeal for collectors and fine-jewelry clients seeking a natural Ceylon sapphire.
At Danu Group, we focus on presenting gemstones with clear information about their identity, treatment, origin and documentation—because a valuable gemstone journey begins with transparency.
