0.83 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

When you are searching for a sapphire that will become the centerpiece of a custom piece, you want a gem that balances presence with wearability, beauty with practicality, and rarity with reliability. This oval greenish blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company delivers precisely that balance. At 0.83 carat and measuring 7.04 by 5.00 by 2.85 millimeters, it sits in the ideal size range for a wide range of bespoke designs, from refined engagement rings to elegant pendants and coordinating earring pairs. Its transparent clarity, rated very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, ensures clean visual appeal while the mixed brilliant cut brings lively scintillation and modern brilliance to an intimate oval silhouette.

The oval shape is one of the most versatile for custom settings, and this stone’s proportions make it especially adaptable for secure, flattering designs. The length and width give a graceful elongated profile that can create the illusion of a longer finger in rings or a more elegant drop in pendants, while the well balanced depth and excellent polish enhance light return without appearing bulky. The mixed brilliant cut incorporates both step and brilliant facets, offering a sophisticated interplay of flash and depth that reads beautifully in both solitaire and halo settings. Because the stone is a darker greenish blue with dark color intensity, it offers a rich, jewel tone that pairs beautifully with warm metals like yellow and rose gold, and also provides striking contrast in platinum or white gold settings. The heat treated enhancement is a common, stable, and accepted practice that improves color and clarity, while the gem’s origin from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, adds provenance and desirability.

For clients commissioning a custom ring or a unique set, this sapphire answers the brief for a center stone that is both distinctive and practical. Its size is compatible with standard ring heads and pendant bails, making it straightforward to design settings that protect the gem and highlight its color and cut. Consider a low profile four prong or bezel mounting for everyday wear, or a delicate halo to amplify presence while preserving elegance. At The Natural Sapphire Company we can advise on metal choice, setting style, and complementary side stones to realize your vision, ensuring this lovely Ceylon oval becomes the perfect signature piece in your bespoke collection.
