Gorgeous Bulgari 180.98 Ct Burmese Sapphire and Diamond Necklace

Burma (now called Myanmar since gaining independence from the British) is another long time producing country of fine blue sapphires. Usually Burmese sapphires are described as royal blue, typically on the darker side of royal blue. Many gemologists, retailers, auctioneers, and other stone houses will talk very highly of Burmese sapphires being the very best quality sapphires; we do not necessarily agree that this is true and fair. Each sapphire should be graded by its visual appearance for sheer beauty. Burma does produce excellent stones, usually in smaller quantities but larger sizes. Burmese sapphires will almost always cost 50% – 100% more than a sapphire from Madagascar or Ceylon.

Necklace Festa by Bulgari

Crafted around the most magnificent sapphire and sparkling with the brilliance of diamonds, the Festa delle principesse chain necklace shines with royal splendor.
Charismatic and one-of-a-kind, the Festa delle principesse necklace is inspired by Princess Paolina Borghese, one of the most eccentric women of her era, famous for her sense of fashion and her numerous love affairs. On the occasion of her marriage with Camillo Borghese, her brother Napoleon Bonaparte gifted her a magnificent Tiara, featuring one of her favorite gemstones, a breathtaking sapphire, evoked and celebrated with this exquisite masterpiece.

Blue Belle of Asia

Nowadays exceptional quality colorful gemstones and color diamonds are also outstanding auction lots. The Blue Belle of Asia was discovered in 1926 at Pelmadula, Ratnapura (‘The City of Gems’ – this location contains the most gem deposits and derived its name from the gem industry) in Ceylon. For long centuries, the island of Sri Lanka has been a key source for sapphires. These sapphires are known for their high clarity, special color, and fingerprint inclusions. Almost 10 years later the Blue Belle of Asia was sold to a British automotive magnate, the founder of Morris Motors Ltd., Lord Nuffield (1877-1963). After this only rumors surround the fate of the stone. The 392.52 Carat, unheated sapphire, framed with brilliant-cut diamonds is a truly stunning sight even for the untrained eye, both for its size and color.
