The exquisite oval shape blue sapphire, weighing 0.76 carats, is a paradigm of refined elegance captured by its transparent allure and adept craftsmanship. This gemstone, meticulously sourced from the esteemed mines of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, is a testament to nature’s magnificence and human ingenuity combined.

Adorned with a mixed brilliant cut, this sapphire exudes a balance between tradition and modern sophistication. The mixed brilliant cut, renowned among gem cutters, optimizes the gemstone's optical performance by blending step cuts on the pavilion and brilliant cuts on the crown. This precise technique ensures the sapphire showcases an intense play of light and an impressive display of brilliance, enhancing its color and vivacity from every vantage point. It is this interplay of cut and clarity that truly allows the medium color intensity of the sapphire to manifest its full potential, capturing the beholder's gaze with its mesmerizing azure hues.

The sapphire's clarity is rated as slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means that any minor inclusions are scarcely visible without magnification and do not detract from the stone’s beauty. Instead, these inclusions serve as a unique testament to the gemstone’s natural origin, setting this Ceylon sapphire apart from synthetic counterparts. The slightly included rating strikes a perfect balance, allowing the sapphire to maintain an elevated degree of transparency that amplifies its brilliant characteristic, yet retaining its authenticity.

Moreover, the excellent polish of this sapphire is a critical aspect of its unrivaled appeal. Achieving such a high-grade polish requires artisans with a profound understanding of, and experience in, gemstone finishing techniques. At The Natural Sapphire Company, our master craftsmen employ advanced polishing methodologies that refine the surface of the sapphire to a near-mirror finish.
