0.93 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One beautiful transparent 0.93 carat pear shape blue sapphire is presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, with dimensions of 7.05 x 5.06 x 3.34 mm, a mixed brilliant cut, a clarity grade listed as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, dark color intensity, and an excellent polish. This Ceylon origin sapphire has been heat treated to enhance its stability and color, a commonly accepted enhancement in the market that produces lasting results. Compared to many off the shelf offerings, this particular stone combines a near one carat weight with a finely tuned pear outline and precise faceting that deliver both presence and versatility. Where mass market parcels often prioritize size at the expense of balance and finish, this sapphire shows disciplined cutting and surface work, which is immediately apparent in its lively reflections and consistent tone.

For bespoke jewelry designers and customers seeking a center stone that adapts beautifully to custom settings, the pear shape and these exact proportions make this sapphire especially desirable. At 7.05 mm in length and 5.06 mm across, the stone sits in the sweet spot between delicate and statement, offering a shape that flatters the finger when set as a ring, frames the throat beautifully as a pendant, and complements the ear in a drop earring. The tapered pear profile provides a natural visual elongation that many clients seek for engagement ring designs, and the mixed brilliant cut gives a bright face up appearance while preserving deep color in the pavilion. Compared to round or cushion stones of similar weight, a pear allows more design creativity, enabling asymmetric settings, off center halos, and the use of tapered side stones to accentuate the point of the pear. For designers working on bespoke commissions, the controlled depth and secure girdle profile of this gem reduce the need for radical setting adjustments, which keeps production timelines shorter and protects the integrity of the stone.

When measured against other market options, this sapphire stands out in clarity, cut quality, and practical color. Many commercial sapphires in this size class show obvious inclusions at a glance or inconsistent polishing that dulls return of light. This stone, by contrast, reads eye clean with very very slight inclusions that do not distract from its appearance, providing a cleaner window into the rich blue body tone. Its dark color intensity places it in the realm of classic, formal blue sapphires, offering a depth and saturation that reads strongly in jewelry photography and in natural light. While extremely rare untreated sapphires command premiums, heat treated sapphires like this one offer the best balance of beauty and value, because the treatment is stable and widely accepted in the trade. Origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka adds another positive comparison point, because Ceylon material is prized for its range of blue hues and lively character, and this stone exemplifies the more saturated end of that spectrum without becoming overly inky. The mixed brilliant cut optimizes scintillation in a way that many simple step cuts do not, so the stone outperforms similarly sized alternatives in real world wear, catching light in movement and translating that into eye appeal.

From a value and customization perspective, this sapphire is an excellent proposition for anyone commissioning a custom piece through The Natural Sapphire Company. The combination of near one carat weight, refined pear proportions, stable enhancement, and exceptional polish allows designers to place it in a variety of settings with confidence, from classic prong solitaires to modern bezel frames, from vintage inspired halos to minimalist tension mounts. Metal choices will alter the perception of the blue, with platinum and white gold sharpening contrast and modernity, yellow gold warming the tone and creating a vintage feel, and rose gold lending a contemporary romantic cast that highlights the stone at everyday wear. Because the gem is compact enough to be practical for engagement ring wear and expressive enough to serve as a focal pendant, it represents a rare middle ground that reduces compromise in bespoke work. Our team at The Natural Sapphire Company can advise on setting geometry to protect the point of the pear, recommend side stone shapes that echo the mixed brilliant cut, and work with your jeweler to ensure secure bezel or prong placement that maximizes light and longevity. This sapphire is a gemstone that brings measured rarity and design flexibility to a commission, and it offers a level of finish and character that makes it superior to many similar stones commonly seen on the market.
