0.89 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The featured gemstone is a strikingly beautiful transparent 0.89 carat oval shape blue sapphire, exhibiting dimensions of 7.04 x 5.10 x 3.26 mm. This exquisite gemstone is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship emblematic of the quality associated with The Natural Sapphire Company. Employing a mixed brilliant cut, the sapphire maximizes brilliance and light return, a factor that significantly enhances its visual appeal. This specific cut combines traditional brilliant faceting on the crown with step cut faceting on the pavilion, allowing the sapphire to exhibit a scintillating play of light while also preserving the stone's inherent depth and color.

In terms of purity, this sapphire possesses a clarity grade classified as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level. Such a grade suggests that any inclusions present are minimal and difficult to discern without magnification, maintaining the stone's overall transparency and luminosity. The sapphire's intense color intensity further augments its allure. Known for their rich hues, sapphires originated from Ceylon, as seen in this stone, typically display a vibrant blue that captures attention effortlessly. The coloration is uniform across the gem, showcasing an appealing balance between saturation and tone that benefits from this element of uniformity.

Under varying lighting conditions, the sapphire continues to exude a captivating allure. In natural daylight, the mixed brilliant cut allows the gem to display a lively sparkle, amplifying its surface luster while preserving its deep, rich blue hue. Under incandescent lighting, the stone's internal structure works to release occasional flashes of violet, creating a dynamic and visually intriguing play of colors. This radiant display is further supported by the excellent polish the gemstone has undergone, enhancing its reflective properties and allowing a captivating interplay of light across its surface. The combination of these detailed craftsmanship techniques and the superb natural qualities of Ceylon sapphires result in a piece of exceptional timeless beauty. Entrusting The Natural Sapphire Company with your sapphire selection ensures access to unparalleled quality and artisanal excellence in each carefully curated gemstone offering.
