The centerpiece of this exquisite offering from The Natural Sapphire Company is a stunning 1.34 carat oval-shaped blue sapphire, distinguished by its remarkable transparency and vibrant hue. Measuring 7.42 x 5.38 x 4.18 mm, this gemstone's size is meticulously optimized to maximize brilliance and visual appeal. Employing a mixed brilliant cut, this sapphire leverages both step cuts and brilliant facets to enhance its sparkle. The technique combines the precision of flat, angular facets used in step cuts with the dynamic facet arrangements found in brilliant cuts, resulting in a play of light that is nothing short of mesmerizing. This is particularly apparent when viewed at different angles, showcasing its unique ability to capture and emanate light, thereby creating an unmatched sparkle.
Key to the gem's allure is its clarity, graded as eye clean when evaluated at eye level. This means that any inclusions or imperfections are invisible to the naked eye, thus allowing the sapphire to interact with light in the most effective manner possible. The vivid color intensity further elevates its aesthetic, striking a perfect balance between a rich, deep blue tone and vivid saturation that commands attention. This intensity is indicative of the highest quality blue sapphires, distinguishing it from other varieties with less vibrant colors.
Our craftsmanship extends beyond the technical facets to include an excellent polish, which enhances the sapphire’s surface luster and ensures maximum light reflection. The origin of this precious gemstone is Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, a locale renowned for yielding sapphires of exceptional quality and historical significance. This provenance not only adds to the gem’s pedigree but also its value. In essence, this offering from The Natural Sapphire Company stands as a testament to the artistry and expertise involved in crafting jewels that appeal to connoisseurs who treasure the fine details, sparkling brilliance, and rich depth of finely crafted gemstones.
