1.14 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional transparent 1.14 carat oval blue sapphire from Ceylon Sri Lanka offers a vivid color intensity and a clarity graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, traits that set it apart from many market alternatives. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish produce lively sparkle and controlled light return, unlike poorly cut sapphires that look dark and lifeless. Compared with lower grade stones that show heavy inclusions or uneven color zoning, this gem delivers a clean face up appearance and consistent saturation. At The Natural Sapphire Company we select stones that balance visual impact and practical wearability, and this sapphire demonstrates that careful selection. The heat treated enhancement is a common and stable practice used to enhance color uniformity and does not diminish the gem quality when disclosed, making this stone a reliable choice for fine jewellery.

The measuring 6.79 by 5.91 by 3.56 millimeter oval shape makes this sapphire especially ideal for custom jewellery design, because the proportions provide excellent face up presence without excessive depth that complicates setting. Oval shapes generally appear larger than round stones of the same carat weight, so this 1.14 carat gem will read confidently as a center stone in an engagement ring, stand out beautifully in a solitaire pendant, and fit elegantly as a focal point in bespoke halo or three stone designs. The moderate depth of 3.56 millimeters gives jewelers flexibility to use prong settings, low bezel settings, or custom mounting styles while maintaining symmetry and protecting girdle edges. Compared to cabochons or poorly faceted sapphires, the mixed brilliant cut on this oval produces scintillation and broad flashes of blue that enhance dressy and everyday pieces alike. For customers seeking value and uniqueness, this Ceylon sapphire combines classic deep blue character with eye clean appearance and designer friendly dimensions, making it a superior option when compared to off the shelf alternatives. If you are planning a custom project and want a stone that balances color, clarity, and workable dimensions, this oval blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is an excellent and versatile choice.
