0.71 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the heart of the verdant landscapes of Sri Lanka, where lush greenery meets azure skies, our exquisite blue sapphire began its journey. Born within the earth's embrace, this 0.71-carat cushion-shaped sapphire possesses an enchanting intensity that conjures images of the serene Sri Lankan skies meeting the tranquil Indian Ocean. With its transparent body and dimensions of 5.61 x 4.39 x 3.30 mm, it stands as a testament to nature's perfection, waiting patiently under the earth's surface until it was unearthed to become a dazzling piece of history. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we take pride in our ethical sourcing, ensuring that each gemstone lives up to our standards of beauty and integrity.

The hue of this sapphire reflects a deep midnight blue, reminiscent of Ceylon's twilights, a vibrancy that distinguishes it from the sapphires found in other legendary locales. In comparison, the sapphires of Kashmir boast a more velvety cornflower blue, while the stones from Madagascar reveal lighter, delicate cerulean hues. Our Ceylon sapphire's intense color intensity and brilliance bring a unique allure, drawing comparisons to the richest skies after a tropical storm. Unlike the famed sapphires of Montana with their steely undertone, or the Australian sapphires with darker shades, this sapphire embodies a radiant deepness that illuminates with every interaction, resulting in a captivating presence.

Crafted with a mixed brilliant cut and evaluated at a very, very slightly included clarity grade, the sapphire displays an elegant play of light, creating an alluring sparkle with each turn. The craftsmanship behind the excellent polish reveals a pristine surface, enhancing the gemstone’s natural beauty. Remarkably, this piece is free from any enhancements, serving as a perfect emblem of untouched natural magnificence. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we cherish the natural origins of our gemstones, delivering pieces that are as authentic as the stories they carry.

From its origin in the Sri Lankan highlands to its final crafted form, this sapphire is not merely a gemstone but a chronicle of nature’s artistry and human devotion. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we endeavor to connect our clients with these natural wonders through stories that go beyond the ordinary. Each gemstone we offer carries with it a narrative steeped in the essence of its birthplace. By choosing this sapphire, one does not just acquire a gemstone, but a piece imbued with history and passion, promising not only to adorn but to inspire.
