Sapphires are found in the entire rainbow of hues, but padparadschas, with their unique color, are the only subset of sapphires known by their own name. The most valuable of all sapphires, the padparadscha's name is derived from the Sinhalese word for lotus blossom-a bloom that shares the same pinkish-orange color. Gubelin and the Swiss Gemological Institute certify this gem as Ceylon in origin, underscoring its superb quality.
