Factors Affecting the Price of Quality of Kanakapushyaragam Stone

In addition to its physical, metaphysical, and spiritual significance, kanaka pushyaragam is also revered for its unbelievable price authority in the national and international markets. Of all the nine precious gemstones, the kanaka pushya raga stone price experiences significant ups and downs due to its colour, cut, clarity, carat, size, treatment, and origin.

Origin

The finest quality pushyaragam is sourced from Sri Lanka, Burma, Thailand , and Australia. Among these countries, Ceylon's Kanakapushyaragam stone price commands the highest price. They may be available at string prices of INR 10,000 per carat to INR 42,000 per carat.

Treatment

The pushparagam stone rate may also be heavily impacted by their treatment processes. For example, heat-treated or lead-filled pushparagam gems often display a hazy appearance throughout, which tends to lower the overall kanaka pushya raga stone price. One can easily find heated kanakapushyaragam stone at a starting price of INR 8,900 per carat. It is a relatively affordable substitute for a kanakapushyaragam original stone.

Colour

Kanakapushyaragam stone price may depend on the type of colour an individual intends to buy. They are typically bifurcated into seven various types:

• Type 1: Ranges from pale yellow to orange and usually comes from Sri Lanka. It displays stable colours in the light.
• Type 2: Ranges from pale yellow to deep orange. It may be a result of irradiation and may have light-fading colours in the centre when exposed to light.
• Type 3: Ranges from pale yellow to orange due to iron elements present in smaller amounts. Typically found in Thailand, Australia, and Tanzania.
• Type 4: Ranges from yellow to deep orange-brown hues created by heating the iron-containing elements. It displays stable colours when exposed to light.
• Type 5: This type is typically associated with synthetic sapphires which may have other elements like nickel after being exposed to heating.
• Type 7: Pushyaragam gemstone of this type is typically nothing but synthetic with colours induced through irradiation. They may fade in light.

*Note: At GemPundit, one can buy pushparagam stone in a variety of colours including, yellow, yellow (staining), intense yellow, orange deep yellow, etc. Belonging to the Sapphire class, yellow pushyaragam stone gets its yellow colour due to the presence of iron impurities in its crystal structure.

The higher the iron, the deeper the yellow colour, which ranges from pale yellow to golden yellow, canary yellow (known as Pila Pukhraj), and even orange. However, the most desired colour both aesthetically and astrologically is bright yellow or canary yellow, which is primarily found in Sri Lanka and less frequently in other sources.

Clarity

Compared to other precious gemstones, the pushparagam gem generally shows fewer inclusions. For example, Sri Lankan pushparagam is widely recognised for its exceptional clarity and consistent colour, followed by Burmese pushparagam. Kanakapushyaragam stones for sale from Thailand, Africa, or Madagascar are less popular due to their lower colour concentration and increased inclusions.

Carat Weight

When looking at the ‘rarity’ viewpoint of precious gemstones, size becomes an extended trait with a direct influence on prices. However, the increase in size also increases the chances of natural contamination, which is why Kanakapushyaragam stone price per carat increases significantly for cleaner and bigger pieces.

Cut

The way a stone is cut doesn’t just enhance its appearance but can cleverly conceal the inclusions as well. Moreover, stone wastage incurred in the processing of rough Kanakapushyaragam gemstones is reflected in its increased prices. Therefore, a faceted cut Kanakapushyaragam costs more than a round , oval cushion-cut stone , or cushion-cut stone.

These gemstones are sensitive to harsh chemicals and heat. Keep them away from cleaning agents, perfumes, and prolonged sunlight to prevent fading and preserve their vibrant hue.

Safe Storage
