1.32 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One instance of a transparent blue sapphire weighing 1.32 carats and cut to an oval outline, measuring 8.06 by 6.07 by 3.50 mm, demonstrates a careful balance of size and visual spread. The mixed brilliant cut combines facets designed to enhance scintillation with a faceting plan that preserves weight and maintains a pleasing oval silhouette. Clarity is graded as slightly included when evaluated at eye level, providing character without compromising overall transparency. The color presents with a light intensity, offering a refined, pale blue tone characteristic of fine Ceylon material. The surface finish is graded excellent, with polish that promotes clean light return across the table and crown facets. This sapphire is natural and untreated, with no enhancement reported, and originates from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region long regarded for producing sapphires with delicate color and reliable crystal quality. The Natural Sapphire Company provides this stone as a documented example of untreated Sri Lankan material suitable for distinguished jewelry work.

As an engagement option this sapphire offers a combination of durability, optical appeal, and provenance that suit daily wear and symbolic longevity. Sapphire is a corundum variety with a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, which affords strong resistance to scratching and maintains surface polish through regular use. The oval outline and the provided proportions translate well into traditional solitaire settings, three stone compositions, or subtle halo designs, allowing the table to present an elongated face that flatters the finger. The light blue tone is versatile against a range of metal choices and skin tones, and the slight inclusions are typical of natural stones, often adding a reassuring indication of origin and authenticity. Given the untreated status and the excellent polish, the stone will perform optically for both direct and diffused light situations. For clients prioritizing a reserve of intrinsic character, a durable profile, and a documented Sri Lankan origin, this 1.32 carat oval sapphire stands as a considered engagement choice, with setting recommendations focusing on protective prong or bezel approaches to preserve girdle integrity and to optimize daily comfort.
