0.72 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

When you are searching for a sapphire that closes the book on compromise, this pear shaped 0.72 carat blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company answers your need, with transparent clarity and a silhouette that is timeless. At 7.07 x 4.97 x 2.51 mm the gem sits confidently as a centerpiece for an engagement ring or as a special addition to a collector s cabinet, its mixed brilliant cut balancing scintillation and color. The gem shows a dark color intensity that reads as rich and velvety in most lights, while its clarity is graded slightly included at eye level, meaning the stone retains a clean and attractive appearance to the naked eye. Heat treated to enhance tone and stability, and finished with an excellent polish, this Ceylon Sri Lanka sapphire carries the heritage of one of the world s most celebrated sources for blue corundum, and it delivers the reassuring presence that serious buyers seek.

The reason this sapphire sparkles with an unmatched depth begins with its corundum structure and the way our cutter has worked with that natural physics. Corundum s high refractive index, approximately 1.762 to 1.770, and modest dispersion allow each facet to bend and return light with a focused, lively fire, and the mixed brilliant cut amplifies this effect by combining a brilliant facet pattern on the crown with complementary pavilion faceting. That facet design captures light into the gem s heart and reflects it back through the table as flashes of blue and subtle white scintillation, while the excellent polish ensures that nothing interrupts the light path at the surface. Slight inclusions are internal signatures that do not interrupt the gem s overall performance in normal viewing, and in fact they can add character without sacrificing brilliance. The pear shape further enhances perceived size and directional shimmer, making movements of the hand translate into graceful streams of light. For a customer who wants a sapphire that feels complete on arrival, that offers provenance from Ceylon Sri Lanka, and that performs beautifully both in an intimate setting and under spotlight, this 0.72 carat pear is the finish line to your search, presented by The Natural Sapphire Company.
