What Makes Our Neelam Stone Exceptional?
Origin and Quality
Blue sapphires are a variety of corundum (hardness 9/10), traditionally revered as symbols of loyalty and nobility. At Khanna Gems, our Neelam stones come from trusted sources, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Kashmir and Vietnam, ensuring superior hues, minimal inclusions, and even saturation. Kashmir sapphires, known for their velvety cornflower blue, are considered some of the rarest and most valuable in the world.
Ethical Practices
Our blue sapphires are sourced ethically and treated transparently. We disclose any heating or diffusion clearly, as untreated neelam commands much higher value. Each gemstone includes certification from labs like GIA or Asian Gemological Institutes, affirming origin and quality.

Mystical Benefits of Wearing Neelam Stone
In Vedic tradition, the blue sapphire (Neelam) is associated with Saturn (Shani), and is often regarded as the Most Powerful Gemstone. Having neelam in close skin contact is believed to yield transformative results:
- Balances planetary energies and strengthens Saturn’s righteous influence.
- Supports mental clarity, focus and discipline.
- Encourages stability, prosperity and long‑term planning.
- Offers protection from misfortune, envy and malevolent energies .
- Promotes emotional balance, reduces anxiety and enhances sleep.
Those who wear high‑grade unheated neelam report benefits after Saturn’s phase shifts in their birth charts, commonly within weeks.
Blue Sapphire Cost & Value
The blue sapphire cost depends on factors such as colour purity, clarity, carat weight, cut, and origin:
- Royal or deep velvety blues, especially Kashmir, draw premium prices, often entering five‑figure per carat territory for larger sizes.
- Cornflower‑blue, untreated Yogo sapphires also reach high per‑carat prices due to scarcity.
- Madagascar and Sri Lankan blue sapphires offer excellent value with vibrant tones and mid‑range pricing.
