{"product_id":"1-37-ct-oval-royal-blue-sapphire-ceylon","title":"1.37 ct Natural Heated Blue Sapphire – Oval Cut | Sri Lanka (Ceylon)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA natural 1.37 carat royal blue Ceylon sapphire in an oval cut, heat treated. Royal blue is the most prized hue position in blue sapphire — a medium-dark, strongly saturated pure blue with no significant gray, green, or violet modifier. It is the color most associated with museum-quality Kashmir and Burmese sapphires, and at the finest end of Ceylon production, the same royal blue character is achievable. The oval cut at 1.37 carats places this stone squarely in the commercial center stone size range for engagement rings and pendants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 2px solid #5b2c6f; border-radius: 10px;
