1.93 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the riverbeds of Ceylon to the palms of your hand, this sapphire tells a story that begins in ancient earth and continues through the careful hands of craftsmen, a story we at The Natural Sapphire Company are honored to share with you. This is a transparent 1.93 carat round shape blue sapphire, measuring 7.29 x 7.26 x 4.49 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style to capture both depth and scintillation. Born of the rich soils of Sri Lanka, where monsoon rains wash color into alluvial gravels and generations of artisanal miners follow the slow work of discovery, this stone carries the weathered hush of the island and the bright promise of civilization. The rough came from a place that has supplied royal gems for centuries, and each facet cut from that rough was chosen to celebrate the gem so that light moves through it with intention, revealing the vivid color intensity that defines its personality.

The blue in this sapphire is not merely a hue, it is a memory of twilight over tropical seas, a memory of the first star that appears when the day gives way to night. There is a romance to the depth of the color, vivid in intensity, that seems to hold a small fragment of sky, or a deep pool lit by moonlight. The clarity is eye clean when evaluated at eye level, which means that to the naked eye nothing intrudes on the experience of color and brilliance, and that intimate clarity makes the gem feel like a secret kept between the wearer and the world. Heat treatment has been applied, a traditional enhancement that respects the gem by bringing out the best of its natural color, a practice widely accepted among connoisseurs that allows the inner blue to become more saturated while preserving the stone integrity. The excellent polish gives each facet a mirror finish, so when you move, the stone responds like a living thing, breathing light with each tilt and turn.

Our master cutters worked with respect for the sapphire origin, choosing the mixed brilliant cut to balance both face up sparkle and internal depth, so that when set the gem commands attention without overwhelming the setting. At 1.93 carat the jewel sits with a presence that is elegant and wearable, and with measurements of 7.29 x 7.26 x 4.49 mm the proportions are harmonious, lending itself to classic solitaire settings or more elaborate gallery work. The pavilion facets have been arranged to deepen the blue at the heart, while the crown facets catch and release light, producing flashes that animate the vivid color. As a member of our collection at The Natural Sapphire Company this sapphire has been evaluated by experienced gemologists who observe and document its qualities so that you can choose with confidence. We make no claim beyond what the gem presents, and we are transparent about the fact that the enhancement is heat treatment, a method that stabilizes and intensifies natural color without altering the fundamental nature of the stone.

For someone seeking a gem with both provenance and personality, this sapphire offers a narrative that can become part of your own story, whether selected for an engagement ring, a gift to mark an anniversary, or a personal indulgence. Imagine it set into a simple gold bezel that lets the color speak, or mounted in a vintage inspired halo that frames the blue like a painting in a fine museum, each option emphasizing the sapphire story in a different way. We at The Natural Sapphire Company can assist with custom settings, advice about metal choices that will complement the vivid blue, and guidance about care to ensure the gem retains its polish and brilliance for generations.
