1.23 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the ancient alluvial rivers of Ceylon Sri Lanka to the practiced hands of our lapidaries, this pear shape blue sapphire carries a story that is both geological and human. Formed under heat and pressure over millions of years, the crystal was discovered by local miners who have worked these fertile grounds for generations, each stone unearthed a small chapter in the island s enduring gem history. At The Natural Sapphire Company we celebrate that lineage, and this transparent 1.23 carat gem is an example of how nature and craft meet. Its pear shape with dimensions 7.84 by 5.25 by 4.19 mm offers a graceful silhouette while the mixed brilliant cut brings a modern sensibility to a classic form, each facet polished to an excellent finish that allows light to dance from within. The clarity grade is eye clean evaluated at eye level, and because this sapphire is untreated with enhancement no enhancement, its color and character are entirely natural, a direct conversation with the earth that created it.

The blue of this stone is medium intense in color intensity, a rich and bold hue that reads as both calming and commanding. Worn against the skin it becomes a symbol of personal power and distinction, a point of quiet authority that shifts with every turn of the hand. The mixed brilliant cut amplifies that presence by balancing scintillation and depth, creating flashes of light that articulate the sapphire s inner life. Whether set alone as a solitaire or paired with complementing metals and diamonds, this gem will act as a signature piece, an heirloom in the making that speaks to refined taste and intentional choice. At The Natural Sapphire Company we take pride in presenting stones whose provenance and integrity can be trusted, and this Ceylon sapphire is a testament to both rarity and responsibility, a gem whose journey from riverbed to ring embodies centuries of craft, and a color that invites the wearer to claim boldness with grace.
