0.91 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One beautiful transparent 0.91 carat cushion shape blue sapphire from Ceylon is a rare find for collectors and jewelry lovers alike, this gem measures 5.23 x 4.94 x 3.96 millimeters, it is faceted with a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes fire and sparkle, the vivid color intensity is immediately striking against the eye clean clarity grade assessed at eye level, the polish is excellent and the stone has been heat treated which is a widely accepted enhancement for Sri Lankan sapphires, at The Natural Sapphire Company we select sapphires that present an exceptional balance of color, clarity, and carat weight, in the current market many sapphires offered at entry level are under 0.50 carats which limits their visual impact and their ability to command higher per carat value, a 0.91 carat cushion sapphire maintains a strong presence on the finger or in a pendant while remaining more accessible than larger stones, this combination of near one carat weight with vivid Ceylon color and eye clean clarity sets this sapphire apart from more common material.

Carat weight is one of the most important contributors to a sapphire s value and its rarity, gemstones are priced on a per carat basis that typically increases nonlinearly as weight categories rise, passing full carat marks often triggers a noticeable premium, a 0.91 carat sapphire sits just below the one carat threshold which places it in a sweet spot for buyers who want maximum visual appeal without the higher price jump associated with a full one carat stone, compared to smaller sapphires in the 0.25 to 0.60 carat range this cushion sapphire offers superior light return and presence because the extra mass allows the cutter to preserve depth and table proportions that enhance brilliance and color saturation, compared to larger sapphires above 1.25 carats those stones are rarer and more expensive, however many of them sacrifice ideal cut or are heavily included, this 0.91 carat gem combines the practical advantages of a wearably sized sapphire with the rarity and per carat value profile that collectors prize.

Beyond raw weight the mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish of this sapphire ensure that the stone s 0.91 carat mass is expressed as lively sparkle and balanced color, the cushion outline and precise facet arrangement produce a mix of broad flashes and scintillation which reads as more substantial to the eye than measurements alone, clarity matters greatly for stones in this weight range, an eye clean grade means the visual purity of the pavilion and crown is untouched by noticeable inclusions, this elevates both beauty and market desirability, origin is another differentiator, Ceylon sapphires are celebrated for their velvety, vivid blues and transparent body tone, heat treatment is standard practice that stabilizes and intensifies color in a consistent and accepted way, at The Natural Sapphire Company we provide gemstones that have been evaluated and documented so you can compare this 0.91 carat cushion sapphire to other market options with confidence, whether you are choosing a solitaire setting to showcase the vivid color, a halo to amplify presence, or a custom design that benefits from the stone s versatility, this sapphire s weight, cut, clarity, and origin make it a superior choice for anyone seeking the best balance of value, rarity, and wearable elegance.
