0.43 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine a single drop of midnight sunlight captured and held, a jewel that hums with the deep, endless blue of the ocean at dusk. This is a transparent blue sapphire of 0.43 carats, an oval shaped treasure with the refined proportions of 5.48 x 3.50 x 2.56 mm, a stone that seems small in measure but vast in presence. Cut as a mixed brilliant cut and finished with an excellent polish, it catches and scatters light with the practiced grace of a star. Its clarity is graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a subtle assurance that its interior whispers of natural origin rather than shouting of flaws. Originating from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this sapphire wears its heritage like a poem, steeped in a long and storied tradition of colour, and it has been gently heat treated to calm and enhance its vivid colour intensity, a careful touch that reveals the stone at its most honest and radiant. From our hands at The Natural Sapphire Company this gem arrives as a promise, an ember of blue that invites the imagination to linger.

Place this vivid sapphire in any jewelry setting and watch how its colour commands attention, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. The mixed brilliant cut gives it the fire of a brilliant and the depth of a step, so that under candlelight it glows with internal fireworks, and in daylight it holds a deep, velvety ocean hue. Its vivid colour intensity is the language of royalty and romance, and it will sing against platinum and white gold with crystalline contrast, and glow like a secret against the warm embrace of yellow gold. In a solitaire setting it will be a voice, pure and unaccompanied, speaking of singular devotion. Nestled within a halo the blue will deepen, the surrounding diamonds refracting the sapphire back into itself until the centre seems infinite. Set as a pendant it will lie close to the heart and move like a private tide, a concentrated blue that draws the eye and keeps it. On a pair of delicate earrings it will frame the face like twin moons, small but unforgettable, asserting itself through vivid colour and exceptional polish. Its compact dimensions make it ideal for tailored designs that demand elegance and restraint, yet its intensity ensures that wherever it is placed it will be the focal point of every gaze.
