0.95 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

If you are searching for a single gemstone that ends the quest for the ideal center stone for a bespoke engagement ring or a standout piece for a collector, this 0.95 carat cushion shape blue sapphire is the precise answer. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this gem combines classic proportions with vivid Ceylon color and eye level clarity that will satisfy the most discerning buyers. The weight of 0.95 carat and the measurements of 6.55 x 4.53 x 3.31 mm deliver the long sought after balance between presence and wearability, making it an exceptional candidate for custom work where fitting the stone to the design is as important as the stone itself. Transparent and faceted with a mixed brilliant cut, it offers the scintillation and depth required for a ring that must perform daily, while remaining undeniably elegant for formal wear.

When designing custom jewelry, size and shape determine how the gemstone will sit on the finger, hang from a chain, or nestle beside accent stones. The cushion shape of this sapphire creates a generous face up area and a soft, rounded outline that flatters a wide range of settings. At 6.55 x 4.53 mm this stone has a pleasing length to width ratio that lends itself to classic solitaire settings, refined three stone designs, and sophisticated halo frameworks. The depth of 3.31 mm gives the stone enough pavilion to play with light without overwhelming the setting, allowing jewelers to craft prong configurations that secure the gem while maximizing light return. Designers will appreciate how the cushion silhouette bridges vintage charm and contemporary style, enabling bezel settings for a sleek protective look, low profile prongs for active lifestyles, or high crown mounts for dramatic presence.

Beyond silhouette and dimensions, the cutting and clarity of this sapphire make it ideal for bespoke applications that aim to showcase color and sparkle. The mixed brilliant cut brings together the fire of brilliant faceting with the classically faceted pavilion of a cushion, producing lively scintillation and a strong center glow that photographs beautifully and captivates in person. Graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the clarity ensures that the surface remains visually clean to typical inspection, while natural internal character adds life and authenticity under magnification. The vivid color intensity of the stone, combined with excellent polish, means that when set it will project a saturated, luminous blue that reads vividly from a distance and reveals subtle blue nuances up close. Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, this sapphire carries the region signature of bright, lively blues prized by collectors and designers alike.

Practical considerations that matter for everyday wear are also met by this sapphire. Sapphires are among the toughest precious gems, second only to diamond on the Mohs scale, which makes this stone an excellent choice for an engagement ring or a frequently worn pendant. The enhancement described as heat treated is a conventional and stable practice used to intensify color and remove unwanted hues while maintaining the integrity of the corundum structure. This treatment is widely accepted in fine jewelry and when combined with the excellent polish of the stone results in a durable, beautiful gem that will endure for generations. At The Natural Sapphire Company we are experienced in advising on metal pairings that complement vivid Ceylon blue, on setting styles that protect the stone while enhancing its cushion expression, and on proportion choices that let a 0.95 carat gem read larger on the hand. If your goal is a custom engagement ring with day to day resilience or a standout collector piece that highlights provenance and cutting, this sapphire offers the rare meeting of color, cut, clarity, and size that will make your design feel complete.
