How To Estimate Price of Yellow Sapphire Stone

Attention..!! Don’t just scroll through……!!! Read the below thoroughly to get complete idea of price of yellow sapphire which will help you to choose the right yellow sapphire

Yellow Sapphire is the Gemstone of Planet Jupiter or “Guru” considered as most auspicious planet in Vedic Astrology. Thus yellow sapphire is considered to bring prosperity and wisdom to the one who wears it.

It is a fact that estimating the price of a gemstone is not an easy task. Without the right knowledge about Gemstone, it is impossible to estimate the value or price of the gem.

Yellow sapphire is no exception to above fact. Yellow sapphire is a stone of corundum mineral specious gemstone. All the sapphires come from this mineral species only. Yellow Sapphires are generally mined in Burma, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Australia, Madagascar, Tanzania & India.

Burma / Ceylon Yellow Sapphires are considered best due to their brilliant color and high clarity. Ceylon yellow sapphire price per carat starts from Rs. 2500/- and can go beyond our imagination depending upon the quality and carat weight.

Factors affecting yellow sapphire price

  • Origin:  Origin in context to a gemstone refers to the mine or country from where that gemstone is extracted. Price of yellow sapphire from Ceylon / Burma is highest but again individual gemstone price will also depend on other upcoming factors. Similarly since most of the sapphires from Thailand are treated with heating to impart them color thus they fall into less price category. But Thai Sapphires are commonly used in Astrology Purpose.
  • Cut: Cut is another very important factor in deciding price of Pukhraj Stone or Yellow sapphire. Here cut does not mean the shape of yellow sapphire, rather it is about the facets or faces made in such a way to allow maximum light to radiate or shine through gemstone. Proper Cut imparts gemstones its brilliance and sparkle. We at Myratna use Structural Symmetry Science to cut the gemstones to make sure it offers you the maximum Astrological benefits.

  • Clarity: Another very important factor in deciding the price of yellow sapphire rather price of all gemstones is their clarity. It indicates the presence of natural inclusions. Flawless yellow sapphires with good clarity and no inclusions seen from naked eye always come with a heavy price tag. Apart from the carat weight and color, clarity is the most important factor in deciding the price of yellow sapphire (Pukhraj) stone.
  • Color: Next thing to be considered for pricing is color. Natural Color of Yellow sapphire ranges from Faint yellow to vibrant deep yellow. Have a look on the following chart to get a better idea about the color and how it impacts price of yellow sapphire.
  • Rarity: Rarity is again a reason due to which yellow sapphire prices increases. Like every gemstone, decent carat weight yellow sapphires are very rare and are in huge demand. Thus this demand and supply gap increase good quality yellow sapphire price exponentially. For e.g. one of the highly rates fine color yellow sapphire also known as Kanakapushyaragam price is high due to its very less availability.
  • Carat Weight: When it comes to buying general items, price grows in proportion to increase in weight. For.e. g.  if Price of “x” item is Rs. 200/- per kilo, you will have to pay Rs. 400/- for 2 kgs, Rs. 600/- for 3 kgs and so on. This calculation does not apply on gemstones. If you have 2 complete same quality yellow sapphires of 1 carat and 2 carat, ratio of prices may be 1:3 or more. In Gemstones, as the carat weight increases, prices increases exponentially.
  • Treatments: In the world of Gemstone, it is almost impossible to find a 100% perfect stone without any natural imperfections. Gemstones are sometimes heated / treated to make them look better. A complete Natural Gemstone without treatment will always be of higher price. Treated Yellow Sapphire will always be of lower price compared to completely Natural ones.
