      Product Description for Min 2.00ct 8mm Round Lab Created Padparadscha Sapphire From Switzerland

      As a hard 9 on Mohs' scale, sapphire is ideal for all types of jewelry. They are found in every color, and all colors other than blue are considered fancy. The most desired and expensive fancy sapphire is Padparadscha. The term "Padparadscha" comes from the Sanskrit/Singhalese words "padma" meaning "lotus" and "raga" meaning "color", because its pinkish-orange color is similar to that of the lotus flower. Some are found in Africa, but true Padparadscha sapphires are from Ceylon (Sri Lanka).

      "This was my very first JTV loose gemstone purchase, and I love it. I wanted a big sparkly orange gemstone, and that's exactly what I got. If you can't afford a flawless 8mm mandarin spessartite or Mexican fire opal, this is the perfect simulant. The fact that it's a lab-grown sapphire only enhances its attractiveness, in terms of durability and affordability."

      "What a beautiful stone I wouldlove to see a natural padparadscha Sapphire. I love the lab created stones, they are a class of gemstones all their own. another category to collect. What I like about the Padparadscha Sapphire Lab Created Stone is that it is so perfect and beutiful. I'm making earings for sure.I woldn't mind putting it into a diamond semi-diamond mounts. If everything is right on the hardness scale being 9 then this should be able to be worn everyday as a solitare would be pretty because it is so striking.."
