White Sapphire Stone Quality

Original Pukhraj Stone is unique in its own way. Buying a good quality White Sapphire stone requires a lot of clarity as there are certain factors one must consider while purchasing one. For example, Origin, color, luster, clarity, cut and shape, and carat weight are the prominent factors that determine the quality and price of safed pukhraj. Based on these parameters, the value, quality, and authenticity of the White Sapphire gemstone can be evaluated.

• Origin

  : Some major mines of natural white sapphire are situated in Srilanka, Burma, Australia, Thailand, Tanzania and Cambodia. Out of all these origins, Ceylonese white sapphire is regarded as the most sought-after variety due to its exceptional clarity and large size and thus are the most expensive. Burmese and Thai Sapphire are usually off-white in colour and are comparatively less in price.

• Color

  : Nearly 75% of the White Sapphire gems produced are pale brown or muddy in color. Out of the remaining 25%, only 10% of the colorless sapphires qualify the gem quality. Therefore, it is a little difficult to find an absolutely eye clean, real white sapphire at a cheaper cost. They are usually more expensive than lower quality stones containing milky clouds or color tints.

• Clarity

  : Safed Pukhraj stone is a Type II gemstone which means it is likely to have some internal imperfections. Its clarity is judged by the level of transparency and inclusions (its type, density & location on stone) and surface blemishes. As a rule, lesser the number of inclusions, more the value of a white sapphire natural stone. The presence of crystal inclusions or surface scratches often reduces the white sapphire stone price in the gemstone market.

• Carat Weight

  : Natural White Sapphire stones are rarely found in big sizes. Therefore, white sapphires sourced from Sri Lanka, which compared to other sources are larger in size, are more expensive. However, if the quality is not the same, the top-quality white sapphire even in small size can get a much higher amount than low-quality stone in a bigger size.

• Cut

  : A beautifully crafted white sapphire usually avails good money in the market as craftsmanship enhances the brightness of the stone and hides the visible inclusions efficiently. If quality remains the same, the round or oval shaped white sapphires are cheaper than square or other custom shapes because the cutting process of oval and round shape gems involves minimum wastage.
