The Heated yellow sapphire, also known as "pukhraj" in Hindi, belongs to the mineral family of Corundum and is prized for its vibrant shade, ranging from pale lemon to deep golden tones. The heat treated yellow sapphires are also natural gemstones, the only difference being that they are kept under controlled temperature to improve the color saturation and remove any visible inclusions. They are generally more affordable than the unheated pukhraj as they are easily available for 25-30%. The estimate of heated yellow sapphire price ranges between INR 2000-50,000 per carat depending on the color, cut, clarity, and origin. The yellow heat treatment enhances the shine and makes it look polished. Hence they are a perfect choice for jewelry.
