2.07 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Few gemstones carry the weight of history and the quiet authority of legacy like a Ceylon sapphire, and this exquisite 2.07 carat oval from The Natural Sapphire Company is a living testament to that lineage. Sourced from the storied mines of Sri Lanka, it displays a vivid blue hue that recalls the deep waters and ancient trading routes that made Ceylon sapphires prized by royalty and collectors for centuries. The gem measures 9.41 x 6.73 x 4.06 mm, and its mixed brilliant cut has been executed to bring maximum life and movement to the stone, while an excellent polish lends a mirror like surface that intensifies the color. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, ensuring a clean appearance to the naked eye and maintaining the gem s natural character. Enhancement by heat treatment is disclosed, a longstanding and accepted practice that gently enhances color and clarity while preserving the intrinsic beauty and structural integrity of the sapphire.

Beyond its storied origin and classical charm, this sapphire is built for enduring wear, and the comparison on the Mohs scale underscores that durability. Sapphire rates a nine on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond at ten, which means it resists scratching and abrasion in daily life far better than most other colored gemstones. That resilience makes this oval sapphire an ideal centerpiece for an heirloom engagement ring, a distinguished pendant, or a timeless cocktail ring intended to be worn for decades. The combination of vivid color intensity, mixed brilliant faceting, and very very slightly included clarity gives strong light return and a lively presence when set, while the robust hardness ensures it will stand up to regular wear with proper care. For those who cherish tradition, provenance, and practical longevity, this Ceylon sapphire embodies all three qualities.
