0.43 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the cool alluvial gravels of Ceylon, this transparent 0.43 carat radiant shape bluish green sapphire began its long journey, the story of heat and pressure written in every facet, the dimensions of 5.66 x 3.60 x 2.30 mm reflecting a careful balance between size and brilliance. Mined in Sri Lanka where sapphires have been sought for millennia, this gem carries the quiet imprint of its origin, a medium color intensity that captures lagoon blues and forest greens, and a clarity grade of very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a testament to its natural character. The stone was gently heat treated to refine its hue, and then given an excellent polish by skilled hands, the radiant cut chosen to amplify both fire and life, transforming a rough mineral into a jewel that sings with light. At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor the path from mine to workshop, selecting each facet and finish to preserve the gem s innate story while preparing it for the next chapter in its life.

This sapphire s heritage links directly to the long tradition of Ceylon stones worn by kings and kept in temple treasuries, used historically as talismans for protection and clarity of mind, and prized for their association with wisdom and calm. The bluish green tone evokes the island s coastal waters and monsoon valleys, a color that has guided artisans for generations when setting sapphires in rings, pendants, and heirloom pieces. Whether set as the center of an intimate engagement ring or as a refined accent in a bespoke pendant, this radiant cut gem invites a setting that honors both its visual beauty and its cultural lineage. With its ready to set proportions, its excellent polish, and the assurance of ethical sourcing from Ceylon, this sapphire offers a rare blend of provenance and design potential, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we are proud to present it to clients who wish to carry forward the traditions and stories that such a stone embodies, into a new life and into new hands.
