Buying a loose gemstone gives you independence, you get the freedom to make your own choice, your own jewelry design.
A natural 1.10 carat violet sapphire in an emerald cut, from Sri Lanka (Ceylon), completely unheated. Violet sapphire in an emerald cut is a rare combination at any size — most violet material is cut oval or cushion for weight efficiency, and the step facets of an emerald cut demand better clarity than brilliant formats. The result is a stone with architectural sophistication: step facets draw the eye into the interior of the violet color, revealing its depth across the parallel facet planes rather than scattering it on the surface. At 1.10 carats unheated from Ceylon, this is a meaningful center stone specification in a genuinely rare color-format combination.
Why Choose this 1.10 ct Unheated Emerald-Cut Violet Sapphire?
Unheated violet sapphire above 1 carat in an emerald cut is uncommon at the market level for two independent reasons — violet at this quality level in unheated form is rare, and the emerald cut is rarely chosen for this color. Together they create a stone for the buyer who wants maximum distinction across both color and format dimensions. The step facets create a hall-of-mirrors depth in the violet that is simply not achievable in brilliant-cut alternatives.
