1.08 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A single pear shape of profound beauty, this transparent 1.08 carat blue sapphire measures 7.96 x 4.89 x 3.84 mm, and it speaks of refinement in every facet. Cut in a mixed brilliant style, the gem balances scintillation and depth, offering a lively play of light across an intense color field that feels simultaneously modern and timeless. Its clarity is graded very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and under everyday inspection the stone reads as pure and clear, a testament to its excellent polish and meticulous cutting. Mined in Ceylon Sri Lanka, and presented without any enhancement, this sapphire carries the patina of provenance that discerning collectors prize. To wear this stone is to declare an appreciation for authenticity and for the quiet confidence that comes from owning something rare and unaltered. The Natural Sapphire Company brings this gem to those who seek not only beauty, but a story and a status defined by taste rather than ostentation.

In the long ledger of famous gemstones, size often tells the headline, yet the true conversation is about color, clarity, and origin. In that regard this 1.08 carat pear rivalries the emotional pull of historic sapphires, recalling the silk like saturation of the legendary Kashmir blues while offering the lighter, crystalline clarity associated with the great Ceylon stones admired in royal collections. While it does not rival the monumental presence of the Star of India or the Logan Sapphire in scale, it shares with them an ability to capture attention, to hold a gaze, and to elevate a setting into something transcendent. Its intense hue is reminiscent of the blues that have graced crowns and signified sovereignty through the ages, yet its unenhanced purity makes it an especially modern statement, a gem for the collector who prizes natural substance over artifice. For those who understand gemstones as living artifacts, this sapphire is a compact masterpiece, a refined emblem of achievement that announces the wearer as a connoisseur, and The Natural Sapphire Company is honored to present it as an opportunity to own a piece of history in miniature, perfect for an heirloom ring or a discreet pendant that speaks volumes.
