A natural 0.59 ct Oval Violet Sapphire, completely unheated, documented on AGCL Report #M263124. At 0.59 carats in an oval, this stone is sized for earring centers, accent rings, and small pendant designs where violet's distinctive character adds visual interest at a compact weight. Violet sapphire is natural corundum at the cooler, bluer end of the purple spectrum — a color that reads differently across light sources, with more blue content in daylight and a warmer character under incandescent light. Unheated status means the color is entirely natural — no thermal treatment has been used to modify or enhance this sapphire's hue.
"This 0.59 ct oval carries a Loupe Clean clarity grade rarely seen paired with unheated violet color at this weight — most eye-clean violet sapphire in this size range has been heated to improve clarity or saturation, so an unheated stone this clean stands out."
Good to Know
A few practical points to weigh before purchasing this specific stone:
Color behavior: This violet sapphire shifts character across lighting — expect more blue influence in daylight and a warmer cast under incandescent light.
Scale for your setting: At 0.59 carats and 5.87 x 3.84mm, it suits earring centers, small pendants, or accent-ring placement.
Origin disclosure: Sri Lanka (Ceylon) origin is the store's own assessment; it is not addressed by the AGCL report itself.
Clarity advantage: Loupe Clean grading means this stone should show no inclusions to the naked eye or under a loupe — a meaningful step up in a small stone.
