【Q2 2025 Market Analysis】
Sri Lankan Sapphires Lead Growth
Prices for both natural and heated sapphires from Sri Lanka rose significantly in Q2 2025, with notable gains across all carat sizes. These gains were largely driven by:
• Strong demand from high-end jewelry brands and collectors, particularly for larger stones.
• Limited new supply from Sri Lankan mines, which has kept inventories tight.
Africa & Other Sources Show Moderate Growth
Both natural and heated sapphires from Africa and Other Sources – such as Madagascar and Tanzania, - also experienced price increases, though at a slower pace than Sri Lankan sapphires.
【Outlook for Q3 2025】
· Both Premium Natural and Heated Sapphires Likely to Maintain Momentum
With mine output from Sri Lanka remaining constrained and no immediate signs of improvement, prices for both high-quality natural and heated sapphires are expected to stay firm or continue rising. Auction activity is likely to remain robust, especially for large, gem lab-certified sapphires with transparent provenance.
· Certification and Provenance Will Be Critical
As the market becomes more polarized, transparency regarding origin and treatment status will become increasingly important. Buyers are advised to prioritize both natural and heated sapphires with third-party certification from reputable gem labs.
