0.68 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing a stunning piece from The Natural Sapphire Company, a transparent 0.68 carat cushion shape blue sapphire that exemplifies exquisite craftsmanship and beauty. With precise dimensions of 5.48 x 4.54 x 3.11 mm, this gemstone is a testament to the allure of Ceylon sapphires, renowned for their vibrant hues and exceptional clarity. The mixed brilliant cut enhances the stone’s sparkle, allowing it to catch light from every angle, while the clarity grade—very very slightly included—means inclusions are minimal and invisible to the naked eye, ensuring a gemstone of outstanding purity.

The medium intense color intensity of this sapphire sets it apart, rivaling the best specimens from Madagascar and Kashmir, known for their rich, velvety blues. The heat treatment it has undergone serves to reveal and deepen its intrinsic beauty, a common and accepted practice that elevates the stone's natural color to its zenith. Ceylon sapphires are particularly treasured for their saturation and luminosity, offering a slightly more vibrant appearance compared to the more deeply toned sapphires from Australia or darker Thai stones. Expertly polished to perfection, this gemstone embodies elegance and offers a lustrous finish that is truly mesmerizing.

Originating from Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon, this sapphire carries with it centuries of history and a reputation as one of the world's finest sapphire sources. The locale is famous for producing gems with a desirable balance of saturation and light, resulting in an eye-catching brilliance that sophisticated collectors seek. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we pride ourselves on curating gemstones of extraordinary quality and authenticity. This sapphire does not just signify luxury and grace; it is an investment in timeless beauty, promising to enhance any piece of jewelry with its splendid allure and esteemed provenance.
