0.92 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A quiet sea of light rests within this cushion of stone, a transparent blue sapphire that seems to hold a sliver of dawn, a memory of ocean wind and distant skies. At 0.92 carat it is a gentle treasure, intimate in scale yet ample in presence, measuring 5.36 by 5.36 by 3.51 millimeters, a compact island of fire and calm. This gem was born in Ceylon Sri Lanka, a land where sapphires have whispered to lovers and rulers for centuries, and The Natural Sapphire Company is honored to bring this unenhanced beauty to your hand. Its medium light color intensity casts a soft luminous veil that is neither loud nor shy, a subtle blue that shifts with every tilt like a poem changing its line breaks, inviting close conversation rather than distant applause.

The mixed brilliant cut has been shaped to coax brilliance from every plane, each facet a tiny window that catches and returns light with an almost shy optimism, and the excellent polish means those windows are clear and glass bright. Within this cushion form the light dances, sometimes scattering into pinpricks of fire, sometimes pooling into cool, deep blue, always returning a feeling of considered calm. The clarity is slightly included when evaluated at eye level, natural fingerprinting from the earth that gives character and authenticity without stealing the gem s soul. Those delicate inclusions are honest signatures of a stone that grew slowly and naturally, they carry provenance and story, and they sit unobtrusively within the gem so that the overall face up impression is one of clear, honest beauty. No enhancement has been performed, this sapphire remains as the mountain and river made it, a pure testament to nature s patient artistry.

Beyond its quiet charm this sapphire is built for companionship and endurance, a stone meant to be worn and loved every day. As a variety of corundum it ranks at nine on the Mohs scale of hardness, second only to diamond in scratch resistance among commonly used gemstones, and it possesses the structural toughness that helps it endure the gentle knocks and rubs of daily life. This means it is superbly suited for rings that are worn every morning, pendants that lie near the heart, and bracelets that move with the rhythm of the day, preserving its polish and its bright, sparkling life through ordinary adventures. The cushion outline and mixed brilliant faceting also lend themselves to secure settings, so a well considered bezel or a classic prong mounting will both protect and present the gem beautifully, keeping those subtle inclusions private, and letting the blue breathe. From morning coffee to evening vows this sapphire will carry its color and its calm, resisting the tiny abrasions that would dull lesser gems, a faithful companion as seasons and stories pass.

Imagine an heirloom that begins today, a ring or pendant that gathers a lifetime of light and memory, its blue like a secret kept between two hearts. Place this 0.92 carat cushion sapphire from Ceylon within a setting that speaks to your story, and it will become the quiet chorus that accompanies every day, a stone whose clarity and medium light intensity make it versatile and wearable, whose excellent polish brings a refined, subtle flash to every movement. At The Natural Sapphire Company we see gems as more than objects, they are vessels of feeling, and this transparent Ceylon sapphire asks only to be loved and worn, to witness small rituals and grand promises alike. Let it sit close to your skin and become part of your daily light, a small, steadfast blue that endures with you.
