INFORMATION ABOUT SAPPHIRE AND UNTREATED SAPPHIRE:
Sapphire is very rarely found, making it much rarer then the diamond, hence the market price for this stone is on the rise.
It's safe to invest in a fine quality untreated sapphire as there sure to be value add to this stone.
There is a difference in price among sapphires depending on the colour quality, whether its treated or untreated, carat size, shine and brilliance. Though the most popular color is blue and pink the choice of colour is a personal choice and with sapphire you can find them in many colours.
Almost all (99%) Sapphire on the market is routinely treated with 'heat' to enhance and stabilize the colour. The typical heat treatment process is a permanent process and it does not normally adversely affect the performance, and durability of the gem, but in recent years demand for natural non-heated non-treated top quality Sapphire has caused these gems to command a somewhat higher premium, depending on the gem. When we disclose a gem as enhanced with 'heat', we are typically referring to the heat enhancement procedure performed right near the mines, using the lower temperature wood heat method. This 'blow' heat method typically is used to stabilize the color from fading in sunlight. There's no need to worry when you see this enhancement disclosed. Almost all Sapphires on the market are subjected to this 'blow' heat. This 'blow' heating method has been an accepted trade practice for many many generations. Please note there are other types of heat enhancement procedures.
Part of the appeal of a gemstone is that it's a creation of Nature, rare and exquisite, rather than the product of human manipulation. Not everyone feels this way about gemstones and for consumers who don't care whether or not a stone has been treated, there is a never-ending supply of stones that have been enhanced.
For those of us who prefer a pristine gemstone that has not been "enhanced", there is an ever-decreasing supply of untreated gems.
Untreated gems are rare and likely to become more treasured for the rarity that they represent.
