A natural 0.58 ct Violet Sapphire cut in an oval shape, completely unheated, documented on AGCL Report #M263123. Violet sapphire sits at the cooler, bluer end of the purple spectrum — a color less commonly available than blue or pink, and rarer still in unheated quality. At 0.58 carats in an oval, this is a practical earring and small pendant scale in a genuinely uncommon hue. Unheated status means the color is entirely natural — no thermal treatment has been used to modify or enhance this sapphire's hue.
"This 0.58 ct oval is a clean, well-proportioned example of unheated violet sapphire — a color and treatment combination I see far less often at sub-carat weights than either blue or pink. The AGCL report's No Indication of Heating finding on a stone this size is worth noting in itself."
Good to Know
A few practical points to weigh before purchasing this specific stone:
Color expectations: Violet sapphire shifts subtly between light sources — view it in both daylight and indoor lighting before committing if color consistency matters to you.
Scale for your setting: At 0.58 carats and 5.60 x 4.02mm, this stone suits earring pairs, small pendants, or an accent position rather than a large solitaire.
Origin disclosure: Sri Lanka (Ceylon) origin is the store's own assessment; the AGCL report itself does not address geographic origin.
Clarity in hand: Very Slightly Included clarity means minor inclusions may be visible under magnification; request additional photos if this matters to you.
