Origin: Srilanka
SKU: AGM-YS005

Origin: Found mainly in natural reserves of Sri Lanka (Ceylon). Yellow sapphire from this region is high priced and the most authentic. It also found in places such as Burma (Myanmar), Thailand and Australia.

Color: Pukhraj stone covers many colors from pale to bright golden yellow, to orange to green. Yet, bright yellow or lemon is one of the most precious colors both astrologically and aesthetically.

Clarity: Aluminum oxide and slight traces of iron provide pukhraj its yellow color. It tends to have fewer inclusions than other precious gemstones. So, while inclusions may still be present, they remain invisible to the naked eye. When visible, these inclusions appear as tufts or fingerprints and can reduce the value of the stone.

Cut: The cutting of the gemstone not only improves the quality of the gemstone but also covers the inclusions. Also, a better faceted yellow sapphire is valued more over a normal or odd shape pukhraj.

Carat Weight: A 3 to 4 carat pukhraj will suit a wearer of any age and body weight and provide equally good results. If one can afford it, a 5-10 carat good quality yellow sapphire is best. There is no need to opt for a yellow sapphire that is 1/12th of one’s body weight as is sometimes suggested.

Who can wear Yellow Sapphire?
Yellow sapphire is ideally suited for Sagittarius (dhanu) and Pisces (meena) moon signs (rashi) according to Vedic astrology.
Western Astrology, on the other hand, promotes pukhraj as the birthstone of September and the Sagittarius Zodiac sign.
Pukhraj gemstones can also be worn by ascendants of Aries (mesha), Cancer (karka), Leo (singha), and Scorpio (vrshchika).
Since pukhraj is associated with Jupiter, the most powerful planet in the solar system, it is critical to ensure that Jupiter is in a favourable position in your birth chart before wearing this yellow gem.
