GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: This vivid lemon yellow sapphire, originating from Sri Lanka, is a unique and high-quality gemstone with a premium handcrafted checkerboard cushion cut and excellent finish and polish. Given its unheated status, clarity of SI, and moderately strong saturation in a desirable orangish-yellow color, the fair market value appraisal for this gem is estimated to be in the range of USD 700 to USD 1,000.

As an investment, this particular Sri Lankan Ceylon sapphire may not be a strong asset for the future due to its carat weight of only 1 carat, which is on the smaller side for investment-grade stones. While its vibrant color and quality cut are appealing, the limited size may not yield significant appreciation over time. Instead, this gemstone could serve as a beautiful piece of jewelry for personal enjoyment or as a unique gift, where its aesthetic appeal is more valued than its investment potential.
