Opaque Blue Sapphire Round 1.1ct VI3
If your search is for an opaque blue sapphire, a budget-conscious natural sapphire, or a 5 x 5 x 3 mm round blue stone, this listing is best judged on color coverage, outline, and honest clarity expectations.
This is an individual natural opaque blue sapphire with a stated weight of 1.1 ct, 5 x 5 x 3 mm measurements, a round cut, and VI3 – Visible inclusions 3 clarity. Opaque blue sapphire should not be compared like a transparent fine sapphire; its appeal is color presence at a more accessible price.
What the specifications mean
| Gemstone | Natural opaque blue sapphire |
| Weight | 1.1 ct |
| Measurements | 5 x 5 x 3 mm |
| Cut | Round |
| Clarity | VI3 – Visible inclusions 3 |
| SKU | 1120BLS |
| Price | USD 182.00 |
The round cut gives a balanced outline that is easy to consider for rings, pendants, or matched design work. This is a practical center-stone scale for many ring and pendant ideas: large enough to read clearly, still restrained enough for daily-wear designs.
VI3 means inclusions are expected to be noticeable. That should lower expectations for transparency and makes the stone best for buyers who prioritize color presence, size, or budget.
At USD 182.00, it works out to about USD 165.45 per carat. That makes it an accessible entry point, but per-carat price is only useful when color, clarity, cut, and treatment context are compared at the same time.
How to decide
Treatment status is not stated in the visible product attributes. If you are comparing this stone with untreated sapphire listings, use the gemstone treatment disclosure guide so the price comparison stays fair.
Choose this stone if the color, measurements, clarity grade, and price fit the piece you are planning. For broader comparison, review the sapphire buying guide, the natural gemstone buying guide, or the sapphire collection. You can also compare it with the 0.5 ct pink sapphire if you want a nearby option in the same collection.
Because this is a specific stone rather than a generic stock item, the most useful next step is to compare the photos, dimensions, and clarity against your setting idea before another buyer makes the decision first.
