Natural Sapphires and Rubies – A Symphony of Color
Sapphires and rubies are, scientifically speaking, two varieties of the same mineral: corundum. It is the presence of trace elements, introduced during their formation deep within the Earth’s crust, that bestows upon them their iconic and celebrated hues. A whisper of chromium sets a ruby ablaze with its passionate red, while iron and titanium dance within a sapphire to create its celestial blue. Yet, the world of corundum extends far beyond these primary colors into a full spectrum of "fancy" sapphires, including radiant yellows, vibrant pinks, serene greens, and the ethereal, pinkish-orange Padparadscha.
Natural Ruby: The King of Gemstones
The ruby, with its fiery and romantic disposition, has been revered for millennia as a symbol of power, passion, and protection. Sourced from legendary locales like Burma (Myanmar), Mozambique, and Thailand, each ruby carries a unique terroir, a subtle signature of its origin.
Industry & Applications: The unparalleled hardness of ruby (9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond) makes it an exceptionally durable choice for all forms of jewelry, especially pieces intended for daily wear. It is the quintessential choice for statement engagement rings, anniversary bands (traditionally the 40th), and high-jewelry suites where its vibrant color can take center stage.
Color, Cut & Shape: The most prized rubies exhibit a richly saturated, pure red hue often described as "pigeon's blood." Our inventory spans the full range of reds, from vibrant pinkish-reds to deep, sultry crimsons. To maximize their color and inherent glow, our master cutters fashion these gems into a variety of shapes. Classic ovals and cushions are perennial favorites, while rounds showcase brilliance and emerald cuts emphasize clarity and depth of color.
Carat, Clarity & Specifications: We offer natural rubies in a comprehensive range of sizes, from delicate melee (0.8mm and up) perfect for pavé work and intricate halos, to investment-grade stones exceeding 10 carats. Clarity in rubies is judged by the presence of inclusions, which can sometimes form a silky "rutile" that, when oriented correctly, creates the coveted asterism effect in a star ruby. We provide rubies across the clarity spectrum, from eye-clean to beautifully included, allowing for a wide range of design and budget considerations.
Natural Sapphire: The Gem of the Heavens
From the deep, velvety blues of a Kashmir sapphire to the bright, electric blues of a stone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka), sapphires are a study in depth and sophistication. Their regal history and association with wisdom and truth make them a perennial favorite for royalty and discerning collectors alike.
Industry & Applications: Like rubies, sapphires are exceptionally durable and perfectly suited for any jewelry application. They are an iconic choice for engagement rings, sought after for their rich color and symbolism. In high fashion, they are used to create breathtaking necklaces, earrings, and cocktail rings. We also supply calibrated sapphires in all colors for precise channel and pavé settings in luxury watchmaking and fine jewelry manufacturing.
A Spectrum of Color: While classic blue is the most famous, we pride ourselves on our extensive collection of fancy sapphires. Our inventory includes the full rainbow: sunny yellows, romantic pinks, verdant greens, royal purples, and the rare and coveted Padparadscha sapphires, with their delicate balance of pink and orange hues. This variety allows designers to move beyond the traditional and create truly unique and personal pieces.
Cut, Shape & Carat Range: Our natural sapphires are available in every conceivable cut and shape. We stock a vast range of sizes, from tiny melee stones used for accenting larger gems, to breathtaking center stones of 10 carats and more. Whether you require a suite of perfectly matched oval blues for a necklace or a single, exceptional emerald-cut yellow sapphire, our inventory is structured to meet the precise needs of your project.
