1.23 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Like a midnight sea held in a single breath, this blue sapphire sings with a deep, luminous hush. Weighing 1.23 carats, and cut into an elegant oval form measuring 6.81 x 5.59 x 3.63 mm, it wears a mixed brilliant cut that scatters light like a constellation glimpsed through cloud. Its transparency invites the eye inward, revealing a clarity that is very slightly included when viewed at eye level, a testament to nature rather than alteration, because this gem bears no enhancement. The color is intense, a saturated blue that shifts between serene indigo and bright azure as it moves, and an excellent polish lends a silky mirror to every faceted plane. Cradled by our hands at The Natural Sapphire Company, this sapphire feels both intimate and immense, a tiny cosmos to hold against the skin.

Beyond its measurements and grades lies a story that gives the stone its truest value, a lineage traced to the emerald green hills and ancient rivers of Ceylon, Sri Lanka. To wear a Ceylon sapphire is to carry with you centuries of island light, monsoon whispers, and the patient alchemy of earth and time. Ceylon sapphires are prized for their vivid hues and lively tone, for the way they seem to inhale daylight and breathe it back as color that moves. This origin adds not only provenance, but personality, lending the gem a provenance of romance and rarity, a promise that it has been shaped by a place known among connoisseurs and lovers alike. When set in an engagement ring or a sentimental piece, this stone becomes a story told in blue, a pledge that has traveled from the heart of Sri Lanka to the tender geometry of your design. Choosing this sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is to choose honesty and history, to choose a jewel that offers both the measured assurance of fine gemology, and the unmeasured pleasure of something beautiful and true.
