Unheated and Untreated, Fine Blue Sapphires | Astrological Gem Stones

What does "unheated and untreated" mean in a sapphire? These two adjectives, used together or alone, are used to describe a sapphire that is completely natural and untampered as found originally in the ground, with only the cut and polish applied. It is estimated that 98% of all sapphires available are treated with different heating procedures, to basically improve color and clarity in order to make them darker and cleaner, and only a 2% are available untreated. Therefore an unheated, blue sapphire is rarer, more precious and costlier than a regular, treated sapphire.

The truth about "ethical" mining and how it is used by main stream companies as gimmick for business purposes.

We want to thank all the people at origin, at the mining areas, directly or partially involved in this gemstone business. From miners, mine laborers, land owner, cutters, brokers, couriers and all the others. We thank them by going every year to buy at origin, dealing again with them to bring back, unheated Ceylon sapphires at the fairest prices.  We do not believe in those main stream companies and all the pumped up, untrue, 5% and 10% donation statements to give back to the community..., and furthermore, in using the concept of responsible and eco-friendly, conflict-free sourcing, and blah, blah, blah, solely & bluntly as a marketing tool, While not really doing anything for the people at the top of the colored gemstone supply chain - the artisan miners.

Good deep blue color, good and straight star, perfect translucency, with a deep bottom and as in every star and phenomenal stone, lumpy and uneven, which is the norm. This star will set great in a pendant. Very low price for this quality.
