0.94 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite transparent 0.94 carat pear shape blue sapphire measures 7.89 x 4.51 x 3.66 mm, and is cut with a mixed brilliant faceting that maximizes sparkle and light return. With a clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, medium color intensity, and an excellent polish, this gem stands apart from many mass market stones that trade off transparency or finish for size alone. The pear silhouette offers elegant versatility for rings, pendants, and bespoke settings, while the near one carat weight provides tangible presence without the premium step up that larger sizes command. Enhancement is heat treated, which is a time honored and widely accepted practice to bring out the best in natural sapphires, and this treatment has been applied with restraint to preserve the stone natural character. Compared to commercial grade material that can appear flat or heavily included, this Ceylon sapphire shows lively brilliance and a pleasing medium blue tone that photographs and wears beautifully, delivering superior value for collectors and designers who prefer a balance of optical performance and affordability.

The origin of the sapphire from Ceylon Sri Lanka adds a layer of provenance and desirability that discerning buyers appreciate, because Ceylon sapphires are celebrated for their bright, lively hues and a distinctive clarity that sits between the deep saturated stones of certain other sources and the very pale material that can dominate lower market tiers. Where Kashmir sapphires are prized for velvety depth and Burmese sapphires for intense saturation, Ceylon gems offer a versatile color profile that translates well into a wide range of jewelry designs and lighting conditions, often appearing more sparkling and lively at everyday distances. Sourcing from Ceylon also reflects a storied gemological history, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we curate and document origin when it enhances value and selection. For buyers seeking a transparent, well cut, and attractively sized pear shaped blue sapphire that carries the signature brightness of Sri Lankan gem country, this 0.94 carat stone offers a rare combination of cut quality clarity and origin story, making it a superior choice compared with many ordinary market alternatives.
