1.95 Ct. Purplish Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional Ceylon sapphire weighs 1.95 carats, with an elegant oval shape and precise dimensions of 8.14 by 6.53 by 4.56 mm, presented in a mixed brilliant cut that marries scintillation with depth. Its purplish blue hue displays intense color intensity, a transparency that allows light to dance through the stone, and an excellent polish that enhances every facet. At an eye level clarity grade of slightly included, this gem carries natural character rather than perfection that feels contrived, offering visible signs of its earth formed origin while remaining highly wearable. Heat treatment has been applied to bring forward its color, a well understood and accepted enhancement that reveals the stone at its most flattering and stable state. This is a piece for the collector who understands subtlety, someone who values a balanced combination of hue, cut, and provenance rather than simple size.

In the lineage of famous sapphires, this purplish blue from Ceylon evokes echoes of celebrated historic gems, from the poetic cornflower tones admired in legendary Kashmir stones, to the island born brilliance associated with the Star of India and other storied Sri Lankan finds. Unlike the oversized museum pieces that make headlines, this sapphire offers a rare intimacy, a personal treasure that recalls royal associations without the ostentation. Its intensity of color and refined oval proportions offer the kind of presence that sits beautifully in a bespoke ring or a delicate pendant, granting the wearer a sense of belonging to an elite circle of connoisseurs. The Natural Sapphire Company presents this stone as a limited opportunity to own a genuine Ceylon sapphire that speaks to heritage, craftsmanship, and the quiet power of rarity, an heirloom quality gem ready to be set into a creation as individual as the person who selects it.
