{"product_id":"1-19-ct-yellow-sapphire-ceylon-untreated","title":"1.19 ct Natural Unheated Yellow Sapphire – Cushion Cut | GIA Certified | Sri Lanka (Ceylon)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 1.19 ct rectangular cushion-cut yellow sapphire from Sri Lanka (Ceylon), completely unheated and untreated — the golden hue comes entirely from trace iron in the crystal, with no thermal or other modification. The stone measures 6.77 × 5.48 × 3.63 mm and graded Loupe Clean, meaning no inclusions are visible even under 10x magnification. Ceylon is the historic source of fine unheated yellow sapphire, prized especially for Jyotish (Vedic astrology) use, where an untreated natural stone is the traditional requirement for Pukhraj, the gemstone of Jupiter.
