2.08 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite cushion shape blue sapphire weighs 2.08 carats, and measures 7.01 by 6.35 by 5.18 millimeters.

Origin Ceylon, Sri Lanka, enhancement heat treated.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we present this stone as a singular opportunity, a piece so finely balanced in tone and cut that it stands apart as a statement of refined taste.

The inclusions within this sapphire are not flaws to conceal, they are the gem equivalent of a signature, minute identifiers that give the stone personality and provenance. Evaluated under loupe magnification the sapphire shows delicate silk like rutile needles and a few pinpoint crystals that sit like stars in its deep blue field, plus faint internal feathers that add a velvety diffusion to the color without detracting from its clarity or brilliance. These natural features confirm that this is a genuine, untreated born mineral, later improved by the standard and stable practice of heat treatment to reveal its optimum hue. Inclusions act as a permanent fingerprint, useful for identification, and treasured by collectors because no two patterns are ever the same. The mixed brilliant cut maximizes return of light, and the excellent polish accentuates the interplay between internal character and external sparkle, creating a gem that appears to glow from within.
