1.02 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This 1.02 carat cushion shape bluish green sapphire from Ceylon Sri Lanka displays a rare combination of size, color intensity, and transparency that make it well suited for a prominent, solitary setting. Measuring 6.31 by 5.16 by 3.47 mm, the gem occupies a physical footprint that reads larger on the finger than its carat weight alone might suggest, thanks to an efficient table and pavilion relationship produced by a mixed brilliant cut. The stone is transparent, with a clarity grade of very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a level of clarity that allows light to pass through the pavilion freely, enhancing scintillation and the perception of depth. Color is intense, situated in a bluish green range that remains lively under varied light, and the polish is excellent, delivering crisp facet junctions and mirror like reflections that emphasize the gem facets without visual distraction.

From a design perspective, the gemstone is inherently a statement element, its proportions and internal cleanliness allowing it to be set as a center stone without the need for excessive accentation. The absence of any enhancement preserves the natural crystal structure and natural color balance, an important consideration for collectors and clients who prioritize unaltered gemstones, and a further point of assurance provided by The Natural Sapphire Company. The cushion outline provides a classic silhouette that works equally well in low bezel settings and open prong mounts, each option permitting the stone to present maximum table presence and to interact with light across its mixed brilliant facet scheme. For practical considerations, the depth of 3.47 mm supports secure setting options without sacrificing table size, and the balanced length to width ratio accommodates both modern and vintage inspired designs, producing a focal point that reads confidently on the hand.
