4.24 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Bluish Green Sapphire Pair from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This pair of transparent pear shaped sapphires presents a rare combination of size, color, and clarity that will appeal to educated buyers who value technical quality and aesthetic harmony, each stone weighing 2.17 carats and 2.07 carats respectively, with identical table dimensions of 9.54 x 6.55 millimeters and depths of 5.09 millimeters and 4.52 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance scintillation with color saturation, graded as eye clean at normal viewing distance, and finished with an excellent polish that produces crisp facet junctions and strong light return. The color reads as bluish green with vivid intensity, a tone and saturation that signal a strong presence without becoming overly dark, making these sapphires versatile for both day and evening wear, and the transparency allows light to penetrate deeply and interact with the pavilion facets to produce lively fire and a pleasing mix of blue and green flashes. The mixed brilliant cut is particularly well suited to pear shapes because it combines a faceted crown that enhances brilliance with a pavilion geometry that preserves color, and in this pair the cutter has preserved length to width proportions that create a balanced teardrop silhouette for elegant drop designs. The excellent polish referenced in our report ensures that the surface is smooth and that light is reflected uniformly, a detail that matters to collectors who understand that polish quality affects perceived luster and long term wearability.

For incorporation into a luxury jewelry collection these two sapphires function as a harmonious matched pair, ideal for high end earrings, matched pendants, or asymmetric yet coordinated designs that rely on near identical length and width to read as a set. The close match in table dimensions and shape allows a jeweler to set the stones in mirrored drop earrings with minimal adjustment, or to design a paired pendant and ring combo for clients who seek coordinated pieces, and the slight difference in depth is common in natural matched pairs and will be compensated by professional setting techniques to achieve visual parity. Designers often place vivid bluish green Ceylon sapphires against warm 18 karat yellow gold to enrich the green component, or choose platinum or 18 karat white gold to emphasize the blue cooler tones and contrast with high quality white diamonds in a halo, creating a sophisticated color dialogue that elevates both the center stones and their accents. Because these sapphires are eye clean, there is no need for extensive masking with settings, allowing open prong or cathedral styles to expose the pavilion and maximize color play, while bezels or partial bezels offer additional protection for daily wear without significantly reducing the visual impact. The mixed brilliant cut enhances both scintillation and color, making these sapphires particularly effective when paired with brilliant cut diamonds that complement their sparkle without competing with their unique hue.

Provenance and treatment are important factors for discerning buyers, and these sapphires originate from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a historic source known for producing some of the most desirable cornflower to bluish green sapphires in the market, with a reputation that supports both aesthetic and collectible value. The stones have been heat treated, which is a stable, widely accepted enhancement that improves color uniformity and clarity, and when disclosed as part of full transparency it does not detract from the intrinsic value established by size, color intensity, cut, and origin. Sapphires score nine on the Mohs hardness scale, offering excellent durability for rings, earrings, and pendants, and with routine care and professional inspections these stones will perform beautifully for generations. At The Natural Sapphire Company we provide full disclosure, provenance information, and bespoke mounting services, and our gemological team can advise on settings that will showcase the vivid bluish green color while ensuring secure and elegant presentation.
