1.79 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional 1.79 carat oval blue sapphire is a rare invitation to own a truly distinguished gem, sourced from the celebrated mines of Ceylon Sri Lanka and presented by The Natural Sapphire Company. Transparent and lively, its mixed brilliant cut measures 7.59 x 5.67 x 4.72 mm, and its vivid color intensity is complemented by an excellent polish that gives each facet a crisp, scintillating reflection. Evaluated at eye level as very slightly included, this stone retains superb clarity and presence, offering the kind of depth and purity that only a handful of sapphires achieve in this weight and proportion. Heat treated to enhance its unsurpassed blue, this stone reads as both noble and modern, a piece for collectors who demand exceptional quality and provenance. For those who value rarity, this sapphire is not a common inventory item, but a selective gem reserved for bespoke commissions and intimate collections, an opportunity to own something quietly extraordinary that will be treasured for generations.

In a custom piece this sapphire becomes the centerpiece of a narrative in color and contrast, where design choices amplify its vivid blue. Set in warm 18 karat yellow gold, the stone will appear richer and more luminous, while a platinum or 18 karat white gold mount will emphasize its cool, velvety tones. A halo of fine white diamonds will add brilliance and classical glamour, each small stone echoing the sapphire s facets and elevating its fire, while tapered baguette diamonds on a shoulder create a refined, architectural frame for daily wear. For a modern twist, pair it with soft pink sapphires or cognac colored pavé accents to introduce a subtle tonal play, or flank it with emeralds for a luxurious regal palette that celebrates rare color harmony. Whether set as a solitary ring for an heirloom engagement piece, as an elegant pendant for formal evenings, or as part of a matched earring suite, this Ceylon sapphire will perform with calm authority and unmistakable exclusivity. When you commission a custom creation through The Natural Sapphire Company, you join a select group of collectors and patrons who accept only the finest, and this gem will be designed and set to reflect that singular status.
