1.05 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A deep blue like the hush that follows a vow, this 1.05 carat pear shape sapphire arrives as if plucked from the quiet heart of the ocean, its facets catching light like the memory of a promise. At 6.97 x 5.89 x 3.53 mm this gem carries an intimate presence, balanced and graceful, a silhouette that narrows to a tender point and broadens into a generous embrace. The mixed brilliant cut gives it a heartbeat, a cadence of light that moves from fire to calm and back again, while an excellent polish ensures every surface sings. From the first glance you will feel the dark color intensity, a saturated Ceylon blue that hints at midnight skies and the soulful depth of distant seas, a color that speaks without haste.

Hold this gem close and you will see its character, for the inclusions within are not imperfections to be hidden, but signatures to be cherished. Graded very very slightly included at eye level, the stone reveals, under attentive gaze, tiny internal markings that resemble the gentle ripples on a moonlit pond. These natural inclusions are like the lines of a hand written letter, unique identifiers that tell a story of formation deep within the earth, a history of pressure and time and quiet transformation. Each feather, crystal, or tiny thread inside adds personality, anchoring the sapphire in reality and lending it the honest soul of a beloved keepsake. Where some may seek flawless symmetry, here you find authenticity, small truths that make the gem unmistakably itself.

Origin plays its part in the romance, for this sapphire hails from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a place whose very name conjures lush landscapes and storied mines. Ceylon sapphires are renowned for their luminous blues and velvety depth, and this stone is no exception. The gem has been heat treated, a traditional and accepted enhancement that deepens color and clarity, revealing the sapphire as the cutter envisioned it while respecting its natural heart. The heat treatment is a gentle unveiling rather than a reinvention, a refinement that honors the stone s origin and allows its natural beauty to speak more clearly. In your hands the sapphire feels like a small relic, a piece of Ceylon made portable, ready to become the center of a ring, a pendant, or a secret held against the skin.

Imagine this pear shaped blue nestled in a setting that echoes its romance, a bezel that cradles it like a shell, a halo that catches the light and frames its deep tone, or a simple prong embrace that allows the mixed brilliant facets to breathe and dance. The dimensions are intimate enough to suit a delicate finger, yet large enough to command attention, a balanced presence for someone who prefers quiet confidence to overt display. The excellent polish ensures that each flash is clean, that every turn of the hand reveals a new play of shade and sheen. With The Natural Sapphire Company as your guide, you receive not only the gem but also a provenance and a promise, a jewel chosen with care and presented with the knowledge of a house that reveres natural beauty.
