1.01 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One beautiful transparent 1.01 carat pear shape blue sapphire, with dimensions of 7.34 by 5.42 by 3.51 mm, presents itself as a study in elegant proportion and refined color. Cut in a mixed brilliant style to maximize scintillation and depth, this gem is eye clean, evaluated at eye level, and displays a vivid color intensity that reads as a pure, saturated Ceylon blue. The excellent polish allows each facet to sing, producing flashes of lively blue from every angle and a velvety flash in the pavilion that is characteristic of the finest Sri Lankan sapphires. Heat treated to enhance clarity and hue, this stone retains full transparency and uncompromised beauty, making it an exquisite focal point for a bespoke engagement ring or an heirloom pendant that will mark achievement and distinction.

Beyond its mesmerizing appearance, this sapphire offers enduring practicality for daily wear, ranking a nine on the Mohs scale of hardness, second only to diamond at ten. Against more common jewels such as topaz at eight, and quartz at seven, this corundum stone resists scratches and abrasion with exceptional resilience, making it ideal for an active, polished lifestyle that demands both beauty and durability. Originating from Ceylon, the gem brings provenance and a storied heritage of gem cutting that collectors and connoisseurs revere, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we present it with full confidence in its stability and enduring appeal. To possess this pear shaped blue sapphire is to declare a refined taste, an appreciation for timeless craftsmanship, and an investment in a jewel that will wear gracefully through the years, retaining brilliance, color, and the quiet prestige of true rarity.
