1.92 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The allure of gemstones lies in their unique beauty and enchanting colors. Among these, sapphires hold a special place. Our exquisite 1.92 carat oval-shaped blue sapphire, sourced from the renowned gem fields of Ceylon (Sri Lanka), stands as a testament to exceptional quality and unparalleled beauty. When you compare this gemstone to similar stones from around the world, its superiority becomes evident through its color, clarity, and craftsmanship.

The color of our Ceylon sapphire is a medium intense blue, reminiscent of the deep oceans and endless skies. This is a hue that is both captivating and soothing, a perfect balance that sets it apart from other sapphire origins. For instance, sapphires from Madagascar often exhibit darker tones, lacking the vibrant yet subtle brilliance seen in our Ceylon sapphire. Meanwhile, Australian sapphires can have a greenish tint, which while unique, does not offer the classic allure of a pure blue sapphire. This distinct color profile of our sapphire provides it with a visual appeal that is both sophisticated and timeless.

When considering clarity, the 1.92 carat blue sapphire shines with a very very slightly included grade, evaluated at eye level. This clarity is crucial in revealing the stone's internal glow and enhancing its overall allure. Compared to the frequently more included sapphires from regions like Thailand and Nigeria, our Ceylon sapphire presents a cleaner appearance. These inclusions, although microscopic, can greatly affect the sparkle and light performance of the stone. The near-perfect clarity of our sapphire allows it to reflect light brilliantly, offering visual purity and unparalleled elegance.

The mastery of its mixed brilliant cut further accentuates the intrinsic beauty of our Ceylon sapphire. With precise dimensions of 8.27 x 6.13 x 4.52 mm, this cut transforms potential into reality. It optimizes the stone's ability to catch light from every angle, creating a dance of reflections and adding depth to its already captivating hue. When compared to the traditional step cuts often found in other sapphires, our stone's cut maximizes sparkle, bringing out the best of this remarkable gem. It is a testament to expert craftsmanship, speaking volumes about the careful attention to detail that goes into cutting and polishing each piece.

In terms of origin, Ceylon sapphires are globally celebrated for their superior quality and intense color saturation. The gem-rich soils of Sri Lanka have consistently produced some of the finest sapphires throughout history, known for their transparency and vibrant colors. While sapphires from Burma, for example, are famous for their deep and rich blues, they can often lack the sparkle seen in Ceylon stones. Our sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company aligns with this tradition of excellence, embodying the optimal blend of color, clarity, and craftsmanship expected from a gem of its heritage. It is not merely a stone, but a legacy of nature’s art, capturing the essence of Ceylon’s natural beauty.

By choosing this blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company, you are not just purchasing a piece of nature’s artistry, you are acquiring a symbol of elegance, purity, and refinement. It is a choice that speaks to the appreciation of superior craftsmanship and nature’s finest offerings.
