Lab Created Blue Sapphire / Synthetic Blue Sapphire / Created Blue Sapphire

Premium Lab Created Blue Sapphire

Lab Created Blue Sapphire, also known as Synthetic Blue Sapphire or Created Blue Sapphire, is one of the most popular lab-created gemstones in the world. It belongs to the Corundum family and offers the same chemical composition, hardness, and brilliant blue appearance as natural Blue Sapphire. With a Mohs hardness of 9, it is one of the hardest gemstones after diamond. Therefore, it is an excellent choice for fine jewelry and everyday wear.

Natural Blue Sapphire is rare and expensive. High-quality natural stones can cost $10,000 to $50,000 per carat. In contrast, Lab Created Blue Sapphire provides the same beauty and durability at a much lower price. As a result, it has become a preferred choice for jewelry manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, designers, and gemstone collectors worldwide.

Verneuil (Flame Fusion) Manufacturing Process

Manufacturers create Lab Created Blue Sapphire using the Verneuil (Flame Fusion) process.

First, high-purity aluminum oxide powder melts at extremely high temperatures. Next, the molten material cools under carefully controlled conditions to form a sapphire crystal. Consequently, the finished gemstone offers excellent clarity, uniform color, and remarkable durability.

Moreover, the manufacturing process produces gemstones with the same chemical composition and physical properties as natural Blue Sapphire. Although they are laboratory grown, they closely resemble natural gemstones in appearance. Therefore, only experienced gemologists using specialized equipment can reliably distinguish a lab-created sapphire from a natural one.
