3 pcs Sapphire - 2.01 ct - Instituto Gemólogico Español (IGE) - No Heat Treatment

Sapphires, belonging to the corundum family like rubies, are renowned for their hardness and vibrant colors, with blue being the most recognized. This lot contains three sapphires totaling 2.01 carats, certified by the Instituto Gemológico Español (IGE). Notably, these sapphires have undergone no heat treatment, a common practice used to enhance color and clarity in sapphires. Untreated sapphires are rarer and often more valuable due to their natural state. Heat treatment can alter a sapphire's appearance, but unheated stones preserve their original geological history and natural beauty. Sapphires can come in many colors, but blue sapphires are prized for their deep, velvety hues. Their formation occurs in metamorphic rocks under high pressure and temperature conditions. This trio of sapphires represents natural, untreated gems, offering a unique appeal for collectors who value gemstones in their purest, most authentic form.
