1.09 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the enchanting journey of time, a journey spanning millions of years, deep beneath the Earth's surface, the formation of blue sapphires captures a tale of transformation and eternity. Among these brilliant gemstones, lies a remarkable 1.09 carat transparent sapphire. With its exquisite emerald cut shape, each facet of this gem reflects the skill and tradition of ancient craft, creating a piece that transcends the ages. This stone, vivid in its color and clear as a midsummer's sky, is a treasure born from the heart of nature itself, waiting to be discovered by those with eyes to see its timeless allure.

Nestled within the vibrant soil of Ceylon, an island renowned for its rich geological tapestry, this blue sapphire was conceived amid immense pressure and heat. The island, known today as Sri Lanka, has long been celebrated as a cradle for some of the world's finest sapphires. Centuries ago, ancient volcanic eruptions laid the foundation, spreading mineral-rich deposits across the landscape, which would, over millennia, crystallize into the dazzling blue varieties we now cherish. The sapphire's rich hues were cultivated by a patient and unerring natural process, influenced by the Earth's most profound forces over the eons.

This 1.09 carat sapphire, with dimensions of 7.80 x 4.89 x 2.82 mm, reveals an evasive yet intriguing play between light and stone, crafted into an elegant emerald cut that evokes the grand designs of antiquity. The clarity grade, very slightly included as viewed from eye level, invites the beholder to appreciate its purity, subtly embracing the sapphire's inherent beauty and unique character. Its vivid color intensity, a deep cerulean to rival the most pristine ocean, captures the gaze and doesn't let go, enchanting with a striking brilliance only enhanced by an excellent polish and expert craftsmanship.
