4.07ct unheated lilac sapphire from Sri Lanka.

With a medium saturation and medium tone, its particular violet hue is desirable because it is very precise.

This sapphire could be considered a pastel purple sapphire. Because its soft purple is uniformly saturated, it is a proper ‘lilac’ sapphire.

It is hard to find one in this pastel hue that is not lacking in tone and even harder to find this color in an emerald cut.

The emerald cut manifests its distinct hue while balancing its tonal, ethereal beauty.

The color does not fade out anywhere, which is why a fine light color sapphire is hard to get.

From the family of purple sapphires, this sapphire is distinct for its unique color spectrum.

It has been certified as a ‘lilac’ sapphire by Lotus Gemology. We pursue this particular certification since there are many pastel or purple sapphires described as lilac.

“The delicate purple/violet hue of this gem earns it the Lotus ‘Lilac’ distinction.”

All photos are taken in natural light, no additional lamp is used.

We note the lower the light, the more intense its lilac hue. This is the caliber of high quality unheated sapphires from Sri Lanka.

A distinct color and cut combination, this sapphire will make a sublime ring.
