1.20 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One of the oldest and most revered gemstones in human history, the sapphire has long been a symbol of wisdom, fidelity, and enduring beauty, and this stone speaks to that legacy with quiet authority. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this one point twenty carat, transparent, emerald cut, bluish green sapphire carries the grace of Ceylon origin, a provenance that has produced some of the most celebrated sapphires across centuries. The emerald cut design emphasizes clean lines and open facets, allowing the gem to reveal its inner glow, while its dimensions of seven point three three by five point four four by three point one three millimeters give it a presence that is both refined and noticeable. With a clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, the stone maintains a luminous transparency that invites light into its depths, and a vivid color intensity that shifts gently between blue and green tones, evoking the tropical seas and ancient monsoon skies of its island birthplace.

The history of Ceylon sapphires is woven into royal courts, pilgrim routes, and artisan lore, and this gem carries that timeless narrative into the modern day. Cut to an excellent polish, each facet moves light with purposeful elegance, offering flashes of blue green that are at once deep and alive. Because this sapphire has received no enhancement, its natural formation and color are unobscured, a rare and prized attribute that speaks to authenticity and provenance. The emerald cut, often favored in classical jewellery for its understated refinement, frames the vivid color in a way that balances the stone s internal character with a geometry that has appealed to generations of connoisseurs. Small, graceful inclusions are present at eye level, yet they do not interrupt the beauty of the gem, instead serving as subtle reminders of its geological journey from the earth to the hand.

As a present for a milestone anniversary, a meaningful birthday, or a quiet promise, the gem s bluish green hue is a conversation between tradition and individuality, offering a shade that is unconventional yet entirely classic.
