The Standard For Blue Sapphires. For a sapphire is to be called âblue,â its secondary colors (e.g. green or purple) must not account for more than 15% of its color. Sapphires that have secondary colors in greater quantity would be classified as greenish blue, purplish blue, violet, etc. These are known as âuniqueâ or âfancy coloredâ sapphires.
Color zoningâareas of different colors in a stoneâis a common sapphire characteristic. Blue sapphire often has angular zones of blue and lighter blue. To accommodate color zoning in some sapphires, cutters orient the concentrated color in a location that offers the best visible color in the cut stone. In Sri Lankan sapphires, the color is often concentrated close to the surface of the crystal.
