1.13 Ct. Purplish Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a sliver of twilight in the palm of your hand, a pear shaped purplish blue sapphire that breathes a soft, dreamy light. This 1.13 carat gem measures 7.23 x 5.15 x 3.86 mm, faceted with a mixed brilliant cut that opens like a thousand little windows to a quiet sky. Its medium color intensity casts a gentle ballet of blue and violet, and at eye level it reads as very very slightly included, a whisper of character rather than a distraction, polished to an excellent finish so each facet sings when it meets the light. Heat treated to reveal its fullest tone, this Ceylon sapphire from Sri Lanka carries the island dusk within its depths, a delicate balance of clarity and color that makes it as suitable for a tender engagement piece as it is for an heirloom pendant that will be passed down with stories attached.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we cherish gemstones that are beautiful in look and in provenance, and this sapphire is offered to conscious collectors who seek more than mere adornment. Sourced from Sri Lanka, it has been traced through our careful supply chain, and we work with trusted partners to prioritize traceability, responsible mining practices, and fair treatment for the people who bring these stones from the earth to your hands. Choosing this sapphire is a quiet declaration of values, a choice that pairs romance with responsibility, because a truly treasured jewel should reflect not only the light it holds, but the care of its journey. If you are imagining this pear shaped stone at the heart of a bespoke ring or cradled in a simple gold bezel, I would be delighted to guide you through mounting options and to answer any questions about its origin, treatment, or setting, so that the piece you create will be both ethically considered and endlessly loved.
