Product Information
Sri Lankan untreated yellow sapphire 9.20ct 12.63x10.75x7.15mm
rectangular octagonal, radiant cut. The gemstone was mined and cut in
Sri Lanka. The gemstone comes with a Stone Group Labs Gemstone
Identification and Origin Report and has been appraised by Craig Lynch
G.G. for $17,480.00.
Very fine, unheated and well cut yellow sapphires from Sri Lanka are in very high demand, especially within the Indian market. In India, they are considered "lucky stones" that give one the ability to succeed in all areas of life: wealth, good luck, happiness and expansion of all that's good. For many years, the Indian market bought only lower quality yellow sapphires due to the lower standard of income throughout the country. The recent rise of the Indian economy, similar to that in China, has created great wealth. Many of the Indian gem dealers started buying finer quality, unheated yellow sapphires like this beauty. Consequently, the prices at the mines in Sri Lanka have been going up for years at an accelerated pace. That makes this elegant unheated yellow sapphire an exceptional value today and most likely in the future as well. We do not see this trend slowing down as it is culturally entrenched. It's a classic case of too much new demand and too few available. If you need an additional reason to purchase this fine gemstone, it comes from the prestigious "Somewhere In The Rainbow" Collection, giving it a wonderful provenance.
