1.03 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the rich alluvial gravels of Ceylon Sri Lanka to the refined glow under studio light, this one beautiful transparent 1.03 carat pear shape blue sapphire carries a story that begins in nature and is perfected by human hands. Mined in the legendary terrains of Sri Lanka, the crystal formed over millions of years, absorbing trace elements that give rise to its intense blue color. At 7.35 by 5.03 by 3.78 millimeters the gem presents an elegant pear silhouette that feels both classic and contemporary. Our lapidaries selected a mixed brilliant cut for this stone to marry the best of both worlds, pairing a faceted pavilion that maximizes internal light return with a brilliant crown that scatters fire across the surface. The result is a gemstone with exceptional cut and brilliance, a scintillating focal point that holds the gaze from every angle. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, meaning the stone reads as clean to the naked eye while retaining natural character beneath magnification. The rich tone has been enhanced by careful heat treatment, a widely accepted practice that stabilizes and intensifies the color, and the gem has been finished with an excellent polish to ensure every facet sings.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor the journey from rough to refined, and this sapphire is an exemplar of that philosophy, ready to become the centerpiece in any collection. Its transparent body and intense color intensity allow it to sit beautifully in a classic solitaire ring, a refined pendant, or an heirloom inspired design that will be cherished for generations. The mixed brilliant cut amplifies brilliance so that the blue seems to pulse with life as light moves across its facets, while the pear shape offers a graceful elongation that flatters the hand and hangs with poise on a chain. Whether you seek a statement gem for a bespoke engagement piece or an exceptional addition to a curated collection, this 1.03 carat Ceylon sapphire marries provenance, craftsmanship, and wearability.
