This 8.3 carat Natural Yellow Sapphire, known in India as Pukhraj, is distinguished by its GRS Type 1 Yellow colour description. This important designation places the gemstone within a recognised yellow-sapphire colour category, giving it a rich and pleasing golden identity. Its yellow recalls warm morning sunlight and ripe marigold petals-an uplifting colour that has long made fine Pukhraj a favourite in both jewellery and Jyotish traditions.
Its confirmed Sri Lankan, or Ceylon, origin adds a lovely chapter to its story. Sri Lanka has a celebrated history of producing beautiful sapphires in a wide range of colours, including attractive yellow sapphires appreciated for their lively natural colour. The octagon shape gives this stone a neat, elegant outline that would sit especially well in a refined ring or a classic pendant. Minor inclusions are present, as can occur in natural sapphires, while the overall focus remains on its attractive colour and important origin.
A particularly valuable feature is the report of no indications of thermal enhancement. For buyers who appreciate naturally recorded gemstone character, this means the sapphire’s reported colour has not been thermally enhanced. The stone is accompanied by certification from Nine Gems Lab and Gem Research SwissLab (GRS), providing professional documentation for its stated origin, colour description and treatment status. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we would particularly enjoy seeing this Pukhraj set in a clean yellow-gold solitaire design that lets its warm hue remain the centre of attention.
In Vedic astrology, Yellow Sapphire is traditionally associated with Jupiter (Guru), the planet linked with wisdom, learning, guidance, prosperity and spiritual growth. Pukhraj is regarded as Guru’s principal gemstone in Jyotish and is traditionally worn by those seeking to strengthen the positive qualities connected with Jupiter. Its sunny yellow colour makes this Ceylon Yellow Sapphire especially fitting for a meaningful bespoke jewel chosen for both personal beauty and traditional astrological purpose.
