1.08 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the verdant mountains of Sri Lanka, known historically as Ceylon, nature conceals a treasure of unparalleled allure and splendor—our exquisite 1.08-carat oval blue sapphire. This gemstone begins its journey deep within the earth’s crust, nurtured over millions of years, shaped by the intricate dance of geology into a rare masterpiece. Ceylon is famed for producing some of the world's most breathtaking sapphires, celebrated for their vibrant hues and exceptional quality. Mined from this exotic land, our blue sapphire boasts a depth of color reminiscent of the island's own serene blue waters that cradle its shores, holding within it a narrative of celestial beauty and terrestrial magnificence.

Each facet of our sapphire has been meticulously crafted, revealing its mesmerizing mixed brilliant cut. The expertise involved in its transformation from rough stone to radiant gem ensures a luminosity that enchants the beholder. At first blush, one is captivated by the sapphire's vivid color intensity, a rare feature that distinguishes it from more common stones. Larger in size, yet delicate in craftsmanship, its dimensions of 6.86 x 5.72 x 2.90 mm exemplify perfect proportions, balancing elegance with a striking presence. Under careful scrutiny, the sapphire's clarity grade—very very slightly included—underscores its flawless appearance, the inclusions only seen under close examination, enhancing rather than detracting from its pristine nature.

Endowed with an excellent polish, this sapphire reveals an inner world of light through its surface, drawing warmth and brilliance from every angle. The heat treatment it has undergone enhances the stone's natural beauty, a process recognized for enriching the sapphire's natural colors, ensuring the saturation remains stable and as dazzling as the first light of dawn. Such rarity in both size and color makes this gemstone a coveted item among connoisseurs and collectors who understand the true value it holds—not merely as a jewel but as a work of art fashioned by both earth and artisan.
