Padma corundum is a pinkish-orange corundum gemstone that is rare and expensive. Many connoisseurs consider it to be the most beautiful of all gemstones. It is a sapphire of distinctly light to medium shades of slightly pink to orange to pink to orange-red, rather similar in color to a red lotus, and is often called Padma sapphire. Sri Lankans are very fond of these two colors of gemstones, so they are seldom exported to other countries and enter the international market.
The word Padparadscha is derived from the Sri Lankan indigenous language Sinhala "Padmaraga"', a red lotus flower color, representing holiness and life, is a sacred color in the hearts of religious believers.
Padma =lotus Raga=color . Meaning lotus-like color
Generally speaking, Paphlacha can be divided into "pink-orange and "orange-pink" colors, orange-pink (pink with orange tones) is also known as the color of the sunrise, and pink-orange (orange with pink tones) is like the late sunset.
The opinion of the GIA certificate is that this color should be limited to light to medium pink-orange to orange-pink. And those not-so-pretty dark brownish orange, or even medium brown-toned orange corundums from East Africa do not fit this definition. Similarly, deep orange-red corundum is not Padparadscha, although, since there is no uniform international standard, the GIA Gem Lab certificates well not be explicitly labeled Padparadscha.
The GRS Gem Lab certificate, which is more widely used internationally, will explicitly label Padparadscha.
In 2017, GRS subdivided Padparadscha into GRS-type Sunrise morning and Sunset sunset colors, the orange-pink and pink-orange colors we mentioned above.
Generally speaking, the assortment of Paparazzi colors is 50% pink plus 50% orange, which is a combination of Red Lotus and Dusk.
In fact, everyone's preference is different, so if you want to buy, you still need to combine it according to the international market and personal preference.
[Origin]
As with pigeon blood red and royal blue, these colors, Paparacha assortment was initially defined very strictly, and only pink-orange combined sapphires from Sri Lanka could be called Paparacha.
But nowadays, Madagascar, Tanzania, and Vietnam also produce sapphires of similar colors, and Paparacha also refers to high-quality, bright, and saturated pink-orange combined sapphires in general.
It is only in the eyes of collectors that the Sri Lankan Paracha is of the highest quality and is more expensive than the Sri Lankan Paracha. It is only in the eyes of collectors that Sri Lankan Paracha is the purest of all, and commands a higher price than those of other origins.
[production]
Paparacha is so precious that only about 1% of rubies are produced, and it is rare to witness a variety over 2 carats. Large carats of Paparacha can only be glimpsed at auction.
