  2. Intro Determining the cut quality of a peach sapphire requires careful examination. First, look at symmetry - are the facets precisely aligned or are there crooked, uneven patterns visible? Check the girdle width - too thin risks chipping while too thick reduces brilliance. Hold it table down to check for dark spots or "windowing" which indicate poor cut. Assess the table size - a well-proportioned table should take up around 60% of the stone's diameter. Overly large tables or off-center culets negatively impact light performance. The most telling test is observing how evenly and brightly the sapphire refracts and reflects light - a well-cut peach sapphire will disperse spectral flashes evenly across the surface. Dark spots or excessive light leakage indicate poor cut. For definitive grading, a lab report from GIA or AGS assigning a numeric cut grade provides the best cut analysis. Taking the time to judge symmetry, girdle, table, culet, and light return from all angles will reveal if this particular peach sapphire has a quality cut to match its desirable color.

  3. Where are peach sapphire found ? ​ • Peach sapphires are found primarily in a few select locations around the world: • Sri Lanka - The most coveted source of peach sapphires is Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan "Ceylon" sapphires are prized for their stunning array of light pinkish-orange hues. • Madagascar - Madagascar produces beautiful peach sapphires, often with a very light and delicate pink-orange color. They have a high clarity. • Thailand - Kanchanaburi and Chantaburi mines in Thailand are sources for more affordable and included peachy-pink sapphires. • Australia - Some yellow and pink deposits in Australia can yield peach-toned sapphires as well. These tend to be darker and more orange. • United States - A limited supply has been found in Montana in shades that range from salmon to deep orangey pink. • Tanzania - Tanzania very occasionally produces some peach-colored gems but is more known for pinks and blues.

  4. No, a peach sapphire and a morganite are different gemstones despite some similar coloring: • Sapphire is a variety of the mineral corundum, composed of aluminum oxide. Morganite is a type of beryl, like emerald, with beryllium. • Sapphires are much harder, rating 9 on the Mohs scale. Morganites have a hardness of 7.5-8. • Sapphire colors include blue, pink, yellow, orange, green. Morganite is exclusively a pink-peach-orange beryl. • Morganites always display some amount of orange. Peach sapphires lean more pink. But there is overlap in shades. • Sapphires have a higher refractive index, density, and brilliance than morganite. • Morganite is almost always untreated. Heat treatment is commonly used on peach sapphires. • Morganite prices per carat are generally less than sapphire since beryl is more common. • Morganites show dichroism, sapphires do not.
