0.97 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Blue Sapphire Pair from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the cool, ancient soils of Ceylon Sri Lanka these two emerald cut blue sapphires began their journey as crystallized whispers beneath the earth, forming over millennia in pockets rich with mineral life. Miners guided by generations of local knowledge gently recovered these stones from alluvial beds where each gem tells a story of water and time, of pressure and patience. At The Natural Sapphire Company we respect that heritage, and we share the story so every wearer can feel connected to the land that made their gem. These sapphires are 0.43 carats and 0.54 carats respectively, measuring 5.87 by 3.14 by 2.04 millimeters and 6.03 by 3.14 by 2.52 millimeters, their emerald cuts chosen to showcase the stones natural transparency, their vivid color intensity, and an eye clean clarity that reveals pure, deep blue without visible inclusions at eye level. A careful heat treatment was applied to enhance the inherent color, followed by meticulous cutting and an excellent polish that lets light travel across each table and facet with serene, luminous movement.

The crafting phase is where nature meets human hands, and for these sapphires the result is an especially compelling pair for custom earrings. The emerald cut lends a refined, architectural silhouette that sits elegantly against the ear, allowing the vivid blue to read as both modern and timeless, while the slight difference in weight creates a harmonious balance that can be celebrated in asymmetric designs or matched in settings that play on scale. Consider a low profile bezel for daily wear, a delicate halo of diamonds to amplify color and sparkle, or a minimalist stud in warm yellow gold to create contrast with the cool blue. Our bench jewellers can set these stones to maximize their face up appearance and protect their crisp corners, crafting fittings that complement the stones proportions and polish. Choosing these sapphires from The Natural Sapphire Company means you are not only selecting exceptional gemstones, you are commissioning a continuation of their journey, from Ceylon soil to a pair of earrings made to be lived in and admired for generations.
