Burmese Sapphire
Burmese sapphires are mined in the Mogok region in the north of the country, where the famous pigeon's blood rubies are found. Since the 18th century, the methods of extraction have changed very little. These sapphires can be recognized by their intense, velvety blue color, which can be reminiscent of the blue of the night. Following the depletion of the Kashmir sapphire mines, Burmese sapphires have been in great demand, leading to their rarefaction.
Thus, they are considered today as the most beautiful sapphires still available on the market.
