What makes a sapphire a padparadscha?
1 Answer

A padparadscha sapphire is created under extreme temperatures in the presence of beryllium. Padparadscha appears in a range of light to medium tones of pinkish-orange or orangish-pink. The term padparadscha was initially applied to fancy sapphires in the region we now call Sri Lanka. Find a range of sapphire jewelry on 1stDibs.
