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

The gemstone industry cherishes the nuanced allure of sapphires, which blend meticulous craftsmanship with nature's artistry. In this realm of gemology, the 1.31 carat bluish green sapphire offered by The Natural Sapphire Company stands as a testament to precision and fine artistry. This striking gem is shaped in an emerald cut, contributing to its geometric faceting that astounds with maximum light play. The dimensions, specifically 6.74 x 5.66 x 3.75 mm, create a substantial visual presence on any piece of jewelry, ensuring it becomes the focal point of any collection.

In evaluating the technical merit of this sapphire, one must appreciate its step cut. Unlike more common brilliant cuts which are designed for sparkle, the step cut emphasizes clarity and color. This allows the depth of the bluish green hue to emerge in its full intensity, offering a window-like view into its crystal structure. This sapphire, therefore, captivates with its significant optical performance, harmonizing with its vivid color intensity to enrich the aura of the wearer.

The eye-clean clarity grade further enhances the sapphire's appeal, ensuring that its beauty is unobscured by inclusions visible to the naked eye. This clarity signifies the gemstone's superior quality, with only negligible inclusions on close inspection, if any at all. Such a distinction is paramount for astute collectors and connoisseurs who value the natural perfection only found in the rarest of gemstones.

Exuding a radiant finish, the excellent polish on this sapphire also speaks to the expertise and dedication of the craftsmen at The Natural Sapphire Company. Each facet of the gem is impeccably finished, permitting the true saturation and tone of the sapphire to be seen and appreciated effectively. The refinement in polish not only elevates the visual appeal but also assures that the stone will retain its luster over time, a feature critical for those investing in heirloom-quality pieces.

Hailing from Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this sapphire embodies the rich tradition and reputation of the region renowned for some of the most exquisite sapphires in the world. The geographical influence on this sapphire's characteristics cannot be overstated, as Ceylon sapphires are esteemed for their vivid color and superior transparency. In acquiring this gemstone from The Natural Sapphire Company, you are not merely purchasing a beautiful accessory; you are investing in a lineage of craftsmanship and a legacy of geological opulence that defines the history of precious gemstones.
