2.02 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This beautiful transparent 2.02 carat oval blue sapphire from Ceylon, with dimensions 9.32 by 6.70 by 3.92 mm, stands apart from much of what you will find on the market, its mixed brilliant cut delivering lively sparkle, its clarity grade very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, allowing a clean, open appearance that competes with stones of higher nominal grades but lesser face up presence. Unlike many sapphires that have been heat treated or otherwise enhanced to mimic a desirable tone, this gem is offered with no enhancement, creating rarity and a purer market position for the discerning buyer. The medium intense color offers the ideal balance between a vivid blue and versatile wearability, avoiding the overly dark or inky tones that can mute sparkle, and surpassing the pale, washed blues that are common in lower value pieces. The excellent polish elevates the cut geometry, maximizing light return and making this stone outperform similar sized sapphires that are poorly finished or overly included.

For a statement piece, size and clarity are everything, and this 2.02 carat oval delivers both, the face up dimensions providing a bold yet elegant presence suited to a center stone in a ring or a prominent pendant. Compared to one carat sapphires, this gem reads larger on the finger thanks to its flattering oval proportions, while its very slightly included clarity gives clean windows of light that allow the mixed brilliant facets to scintillate under movement, unlike heavily included stones that appear dull or cloudy. Because it is unenhanced and of Ceylon origin, the stone also holds intrinsic connoisseur value and long term desirability versus treated alternatives, making it an investment in both beauty and provenance. At The Natural Sapphire Company we source and present sapphires like this to offer superior value, pairing transparent, well proportioned stones with expert guidance on mounting and design so that your finished piece truly becomes the statement you intend.
