What Are Sapphires?

Sapphires are admired for their deep blue color, durability, and versatility in both fashion and fine jewelry. Representing wisdom, loyalty, and nobility, sapphires are one of the most sought-after colored gemstones in the world.

At Gem Dealer Direct, we offer a curated selection of natural sapphires, sourced directly from leading gem-producing countries.

What Makes a Sapphire Valuable?

1. Carat Weight

Larger sapphires, especially unheated ones, are highly prized.

2. Cut

Cut enhances brilliance and color depth, especially in cushion and oval shapes.

3. Color

The most valuable sapphires are rich, royal blue with excellent saturation. Fancy color sapphires (like pink, yellow, and green) are also increasingly popular.

4. Clarity

Top-quality sapphires have minimal visible inclusions and high transparency.

We offer sapphires from Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Kashmir, Madagascar, and Australia, each region known for its unique color characteristics and beauty.
