1.15 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite Ceylon sapphire carries with it the quiet dignity of centuries, a gemstone tradition that has adorned crowns, talismans, and bridal jewels across cultures. Mined in Sri Lanka, this transparent 1.15 carat oval reveals a vivid blue that echoes the deep tropical seas and the midnight sky, an enduring color that has been prized since antiquity. The mixed brilliant cut modernizes that legacy, blending old world charm with contemporary fire, while an excellent polish ensures every facet sings with light. Free from enhancement, its natural origin and purity speak to a timeless authenticity that collectors and connoisseurs recognize instantly, and The Natural Sapphire Company is proud to present a stone that celebrates both history and unaltered beauty.

Beyond its storied provenance, this sapphire is superbly suited to custom jewelry, thanks to its classic oval shape and precise proportions of 6.22 by 5.50 by 4.00 millimeters. At 1.15 carat the size is versatile enough to command attention as a solitaire engagement stone, yet refined enough to integrate seamlessly into cluster, three stone, or halo settings. The oval silhouette flatters the finger, creating an elongating effect that reads as elegant and wearable, and the mixed brilliant cut provides lively return of light that complements both open gallery and bezel settings. With a clarity grade described as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, the sapphire presents as eye clean while retaining its natural character. Its vivid color intensity pairs beautifully with warm yellow gold for a vintage inspired look, with rose gold for romantic modernity, or with platinum and white gold for a crisp, high contrast presentation that emphasizes depth of color. For designers and clients who require exacting measurements for CAD or bespoke mounting, the precise dimensions and stable proportions make this gem straightforward to set and showcase. If you imagine a piece that will be worn for generations, The Natural Sapphire Company can assist from sketch to finished jewel, ensuring this Ceylon blue becomes a lasting heirloom that honors tradition and celebrates personal legacy.
