Lavender sapphire is natural corundum in the violet-gray range — a muted, atmospheric hue that sits between pure violet and gray. At 0.60 carats in an oval, this is a practical earring and accent pendant scale in a color that is distinctly different from the conventional pink-blue-yellow sapphire palette. Unheated lavender preserves the natural gray-violet balance that heat treatment tends to shift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 2px solid #5b2c6f; border-radius: 10px; padding: 20px 24px;
