1.14 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This oval blue sapphire carries the quiet dignity of centuries of gemstone lore, a reminder that true beauty endures beyond fashion and season. Mined in Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this transparent gem speaks to the island tradition of producing sapphires prized by royalty and collectors for their clarity and color. The mixed brilliant cut lends the stone a classic yet lively presence, marrying old world refinement with modern faceting that maximizes sparkle. With vivid color intensity and an excellent polish, the sapphire radiates a deep, saturated blue that shifts subtly under different lights, recalling the storied sapphires set in heirloom pieces and historic jewels. The very very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, ensures the gem appears clean to the naked eye while retaining natural character, and modest heat treatment has been applied to bring out the best of its innate hue, a traditional and widely accepted enhancement in fine sapphire cutting.

At 1.14 carats this sapphire represents a premium balance of weight and wearable elegance, a carat weight that translates into presence without compromising timeless proportion. The dimensions 6.75 x 5.91 x 3.56 mm make it an ideal centerpiece for a classic solitaire, a refined halo setting, or a vintage inspired mounting that honors its Ceylon provenance. The combination of its carat weight, vivid color, and excellent polish speaks to the careful selection and craftsmanship that define exceptional sapphires, and it is precisely this level of quality that collectors and connoisseurs seek when building a legacy piece. Offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, this sapphire is presented with the assurance of a company steeped in gemstone expertise and a commitment to sourcing stones that celebrate history, heritage, and enduring beauty.
