1.60 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Sourced from the storied mines of Ceylon Sri Lanka and presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this cushion shape blue sapphire weighs 1.60 carat and measures 7.09 by 5.95 by 4.31 millimeters. Its mixed brilliant cut is a modern tribute to centuries of gem cutting expertise, marrying the scintillation of brilliant facets with the soft, historic silhouette of the cushion form. Ceylon sapphires have long been prized by royalty and connoisseurs for their luminous, water like blues and enduring appeal. This stone carries that same legacy, an intense color intensity that reads as deep and vibrant in every light. Treated by heat in the traditional manner to bring out its optimal hue and clarity, it remains remarkably transparent and lively, a jewel that feels both ancient and perfectly current.

The true allure of this sapphire is revealed in the way its flawlessness is perceived from every angle, through a combination of superb cutting, excellent polish, and an eye clean presence. Though graded as very slightly included at eye level, its inclusions are discreet and do not distract from the gem s overall brilliance, so that to the unaided eye the stone appears pristine and pure. The precise facet geometry of the mixed brilliant cut channels light into a tapestry of blue flashes and deep reflective pools, while the excellent polish ensures each facet edge refracts light with glass like clarity. From the table to the pavilion this sapphire performs with a grace that enhances any setting, whether mounted as a solitary token of tradition or set into a heritage inspired design meant to be passed through generations. For those who cherish continuity and legacy, this gem embodies the timeless nature of sapphires, offering a presence that feels both solemn and celebratory, forever tied to the long history of fine gem cutting and the enduring beauty of Ceylon stones.
