AGL Certified Ceylon Blue Sapphire 1.07 ct Oval – Royal Blue, Natural Loose

Planning a proposal? December is one of the most popular months to propose, and a blue sapphire is the classic alternative to a diamond: harder than almost any other gemstone and full of colour. This is a certified, natural Ceylon sapphire at just over a carat, the ideal size for a solitaire, halo or three-stone engagement ring. It comes with an independent AGL report, so you and your jeweler know exactly what you're setting.

• Natural. Certified. Royal blue. Made to be remembered.
• Natural Ceylon (Sri Lanka) blue sapphire, 1.07 ct, faceted oval
• Medium-to-deep royal blue, eye clean to slightly included
• AGL (American Gemological Laboratories) certificate included

Why Ceylon

Sri Lanka has produced fine sapphires for more than two thousand years, and Ceylon sapphires are known for their bright, lively blue. Ceylon is one of the most recognised sapphire origins in the world.

For the engagement ring buyer

• Just over 1 carat, a classic solitaire size
• Oval shape looks larger face-up than a round of the same weight
• Royal blue tone, rich without being too dark
• Mohs 9 hardness, made for everyday wear
• AGL certificate for you, your jeweler and your insurer

A gemstone for him: the men's signet ring

At Roho Jewels, we believe men deserve beautiful gemstones too. A natural royal blue Ceylon sapphire set into a signet ring is a bold, personal alternative to a plain metal signet: one-of-a-kind, full of character, and a ring he'll wear for decades and one day pass down.

• Signet face: at 6.83 × 5.14 mm, this stone suits a signet face of about 10–13 mm, a classic small signet or pinky ring
• Setting: flush (gypsy), bezel or half-bezel keeps it low and smooth, with no claws to catch on sleeves or gloves
• Depth: the stone is 3.67 mm deep, so ask your jeweler for a signet head at least 4.7 mm deep
• Metal: rich in yellow gold, sharp in white gold or platinum, rugged in oxidised sterling silver
• Wear: Mohs 9, second only to diamond, so it is tough enough for a ring worn every day
• Worn for: every day, or to mark a wedding, a graduation or a milestone birthday

Birthstone meaning

Sapphire is the birthstone for September and the traditional gemstone for 5th and 45th wedding anniversaries, long a symbol of loyalty, wisdom and lasting love.
