1.40 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Sapphire Company, we are proud to present an exquisite 1.40 carat blue sapphire that embodies the epitome of precision in gemstone craftsmanship. This stunning gemstone, hailing from the renowned mines of Ceylon (Sri Lanka), is shaped into an elegant emerald cut, a form celebrated for its architectural beauty and ability to accentuate the natural allure of the sapphire. With dimensions measuring 7.83 x 4.68 x 3.57 mm, this sapphire is an ideal choice for those seeking a piece that is both grand in presence and refined in detail. The emerald cut boasts symmetrical step facets that gracefully descend along the pavilion, harmoniously directing the viewer's eye into its vividly saturated depths and highlighting the essence of intense color intensity that this gemstone showcases.

A noteworthy aspect of this sapphire is its clarity grade of eye clean, which signifies that inclusions are not noticeable when observed at eye level. These natural inclusions, often regarded as the gemstone's unique fingerprint, serve as identifying markers that contribute to its individual character. Unlike man-made gemstones, a sapphire like this accentuates its organic formation process through such inclusions, endearing it to those who understand the significance of nature's touch in defining a gem's narrative. These inclusions, though invisible without magnification, whisper the story of its ancient formation journey, adding a layer of personal history and intrigue that passionate collectors and connoisseurs deeply appreciate.

Further enhancing this sapphire's allure is its excellent polish which results in a surface refinement that speaks to the masterful techniques employed by skilled artisans. The polish is essential for maximizing luster; it ensures that each facet interacts with light impeccably, improving the sapphire’s inherent ability to reflect and refract light internally. This characteristic is crucial for those who desire brilliance and depth in their gemstones, making the sapphire appear more vibrant and lively—an appeal that transcends mere visual pleasure. The interplay of light within this expertly polished stone exudes a captivating, almost liquid quality, which enchants observers and imbues the stone with irresistible depth and dimension.

The sourcing of this sapphire from Ceylon only further attests to its coveted status. Ceylon is synonymous with exceptional quality sapphires, celebrated for possessing superior transparency and rich color saturation. This geographic origin is often highly sought after in gem circles; it guarantees that the sapphire has benefited from the region's unique natural conditions and unparalleled mining expertise. Collectors with an eye for place-specific excellence regard Ceylonese gemstones as possessing virtues that distinguish them from their global counterparts. Selecting a sapphire with such provenance is an investment in both artistry and legacy, as each stone carries the prestige and heritage of its birthplace into the present.
