Ceylon Update

Ceylon has made it safely to her foster home in Arizona. She is very sweet and shy, but I think she is going to be just like the gem she is named after!

A Gem Is Added To The Col. Potter Collection ...

One of the nicest gemstones available is a Ceylon sapphire. These sapphires are mined primarily in Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon - hence the name). They are known for the unique color they produce, and because Ceylon sapphires occur naturally, the color of the stone varies. They are also the hardest gemstone next to a diamond.

CP's Ceylon came to us from a PM that has released a number of other Cairns to us over the years. She is a beautiful grey brindle that personifies all the attributes of a Ceylon sapphire including her toughness of the years she has spent producing litters of puppies. Ceylon is 6 years old, friendly and likes people.

Please help me welcome this beautiful gem to the CP Family collection!
