1.06 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite, transparent blue sapphire weighs 1.06 carats and has been masterfully fashioned into an elegant oval measuring 6.72 by 5.43 by 3.50 millimeters, a proportion that delivers both presence and wearable refinement. Cut in a mixed brilliant style and finished with an excellent polish, the stone offers scintillating facets that dance with every movement, while the medium intense color intensity presents a pure, lively blue that is neither overpowering nor faint. The clarity of this gem is described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a testament to its natural origin and a feature that, rather than diminishing its appeal, confirms its authenticity and character. The sapphire has been heat treated, a widely accepted and stable enhancement that enriches color and clarity while preserving the gem's integrity. Whether set as a solitary centerpiece or framed in a delicate halo, this sapphire will translate into a piece that signifies discernment and enduring elegance.

The provenance of this sapphire is as important to its desirability as its physical attributes, born of the fabled soils of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a region whose name is synonymous with exceptional sapphire quality and storied heritage. Ceylon sapphires are celebrated for their bright, luminous blues and an innate translucency that seems to hold light within, qualities imparted by centuries of geological refinement unique to Sri Lankan mines. Owning a Ceylon sapphire is to possess more than a beautiful stone, it is to hold a fragment of gemological history and expert craftsmanship, a symbol of refined taste cultivated by generations. At The Natural Sapphire Company we curate these origins with meticulous care, pairing the gemological facts with an aesthetic vision so that each sapphire becomes a statement of achievement and distinction. For the collector who values provenance, a connoisseur who seeks a jewel with both pedigree and personality, or the individual marking a milestone with something truly exceptional, this Ceylon blue sapphire offers an enduring declaration of luxury and legacy.
