1.36 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A luminous testimony to refined taste, this transparent 1.36 carat oval blue sapphire measures 7.50 x 5.63 x 4.06 mm and is masterfully fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut, with an excellent polish that allows light to dance from every facet, and a light, enchanting blue that speaks with subtlety rather than shout. Evaluated at eye level as very very slightly included, free from enhancement, and born of the storied soils of Ceylon Sri Lanka, this sapphire is a rare natural offering from The Natural Sapphire Company. Its proportions sit in perfect balance, presenting the feel of an heirloom gem that is at once modern and timeless, an emblem of accomplishment for the wearer who understands that true luxury is defined by provenance, natural beauty, and uncompromising craftsmanship.

What sets this gem apart is the unmistakable signature held within its heart, a delicate architecture of inclusions that confirms both origin and authenticity while adding an almost secret character to its appearance. Fine, silk like rutile needles lie like the softest threads within the crystal, creating a subtle velveteen glow when light traverses the stone. Minute pinpoint crystals catch and return light as scintillating pinpricks, while whisper thin growth planes and faint, healed fissures appear as gentle, fingerprint like patterns that map the sapphires natural journey from rough to polished perfection. These features are so refined that at normal viewing distances they contribute to a serene, luminous depth, and under closer inspection they reveal themselves as the natural signatures that gem connoisseurs prize. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to enhance these internal stories, turning tiny inclusions into points of brilliance and giving the table a complex, shimmering life that changes with every movement of the hand. For the collector who values authenticity and the poetry of nature, this Ceylon sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is more than a jewel, it is a quiet declaration of sophistication, a tangible connection to earth and craft, and a possession that signals both discernment and distinction.
