0.94 Ct. Greyish Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

For centuries the sapphires of Ceylon Sri Lanka have been woven into the fabric of legend and legacy, treasured by kings, pilgrims, and poets alike, and this elegant greyish blue oval sapphire is a modern emissary of that long lineage. Found in the storied alluvial deposits that have produced some of the world most celebrated sapphires, this gem carries the muted echo of monsoon skies and ocean mists. The Natural Sapphire Company offers this gem as a bridge between eras, a stone that speaks to those who value continuity and the slow, patient hand of nature. Its very light greyish blue hue is subtle rather than showy, recalling the soft wash of dawn over a calm harbor, and that gentle presence makes it especially enduring as a timeless piece for heirloom jewelry.

At 0.94 carat the oval shape measures 6.77 x 4.63 x 4.02 mm, and the mixed brilliant cut has been calibrated to harmonize brilliance with classic form. The clarity grade is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, a testament to the gemological integrity of the stone and to the care taken in selecting a specimen that is clear to the eye while retaining the natural characteristics that tell its story. The polish is excellent, allowing light to dance across the facets with a refined clarity, and the heat treated enhancement is a traditional and stable method used to bring out the best in many fine sapphires without compromising their authenticity. As a gemstone specialist at The Natural Sapphire Company I can assure you that each facet and proportion was considered with the goal of balancing optical performance with the inherent charm of Ceylon origin.

Imagine a romance that unfolds with the same subtlety as the color of this sapphire, a love that does not rush but deepens with seasons, like tides that reveal new treasures along a familiar shoreline. The greyish blue tone invites quiet conversation, it is the color of letters kept for years in a cedar chest, the color of a shawl draped over a chair of a room where two people share stories long into the evening. The very very slightly included clarity is part of that intimacy, it is evidence of a life lived and a journey taken, tiny internal signatures that reflect the gem has seen earth and pressure and emerged refined. To wear this sapphire is to carry a memory of place and passage, a small portable landscape of Ceylon that rests against the skin and tells an ongoing story to anyone who notices. Its mixed brilliant cut captures and returns light in a way that mirrors how a remembered smile can light a room, understated but utterly persuasive.
