1.07 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Here is a rare, transparent 1.07 carat oval blue sapphire that answers the search for a truly refined and enduring gem, from The Natural Sapphire Company. This stone measures 7.22 by 5.17 by 3.12 mm, and is expertly fashioned in an oval mixed brilliant cut, with an excellent polish that allows each well placed facet to perform. The clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which preserves the gem as visually clean and lively, while the vivid color intensity gives a deep, saturated blue that reads evenly across the table and shoulders. This sapphire is from Ceylon Sri Lanka, and it has not undergone any enhancement, so the color and character you see are natural and authentic, ready to be set into an engagement ring or a collector piece that speaks to true provenance.

The sapphire owes its unmatched sparkle to a combination of its internal crystal structure and the precision of the mixed brilliant cut. Corundum has a dense, tightly packed crystal lattice that refracts and disperses light with a lively brilliance, and when a mixed brilliant cut is applied with expert facet angles and proportional depths, light is captured at the crown, channeled through the pavilion, and returned as bright flashes and rich color. The excellent polish enhances the edge to edge reflection, producing crisp facet junctions and minimal light leakage, so contrast and scintillation remain vivid from every viewing angle. The slight inclusions that earn the very slightly included grade add character without diminishing transparency, they can also act as subtle light scattering points that enrich the stone with soft life. For anyone seeking a blue sapphire that settles the search for balance between color, cut, and clarity, this 1.07 carat Ceylon stone from The Natural Sapphire Company offers an honest natural origin, meticulous cutting, and a depth of sparkle that feels exclusive and permanent.
