"Ceylon" is the historical name for Sri Lanka. Ceylon sapphires are natural sapphires mined in Sri Lanka's gem-bearing regions, prized for their vivid cornflower-blue and royal-blue tones. Sri Lanka has supplied the world's finest sapphires for over 2,000 years — the same mines that once stocked royal treasuries still operate today.
Most gemstones on the market are heat-treated to improve colour and clarity. Unheated stones retain their natural colour entirely — they are rarer, more valuable, and highly sought by collectors. Every Grand Facets listing clearly states the treatment status, so you always know exactly what you are buying.
Yes — Ceylon sapphires are among the most prized in the world, valued for their vivid, well-saturated colour and excellent clarity. Unheated specimens command a significant premium, often two to five times the price of treated stones of comparable carat weight. Their origin alone adds measurable value at auction.
Every stone we sell is sourced directly from Sri Lanka (Ceylon) — found in the island's gem-bearing gravel beds in regions like Ratnapura, the City of Gems. We buy from the miners, cut and polish each stone ourselves in Sri Lanka, and ship it directly to you. No middlemen, no markup chain.
We specialise in natural Ceylon gemstones: sapphires (blue, yellow, padparadscha, and parti-colour), spinel, garnet, alexandrite (colour-change chrysoberyl), and cat's eye chrysoberyl. All stones are natural. Treatment status, origin, weight, and measurements are listed on every stone.
