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

A singular expression of refined taste, this purplish blue sapphire from Ceylon captures the imagination with exceptional presence and poise, a gemstone that announces itself without ever shouting. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, the gem is a transparent 2.10 carat emerald cut, with precise dimensions of 9.06 x 6.49 x 3.72 mm, a weight and scale that translate into a commanding yet elegant profile when set into a ring, pendant, or bespoke pair of earrings. The jewel carries an intense color intensity that balances the depth of blue with a whisper of violet, a hue that recalls twilight over the Indian Ocean, and an excellent polish that unveils the stone with a glasslike sheen. Very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the clarity of this sapphire reads as clean and pure to the admirer, allowing the quality of the color and the precision of the cut to take center stage. Heat treated to enhance and stabilize the chroma, this sapphire comes to you with the assurance of natural origin, Ceylon Sri Lanka, a land celebrated for producing some of the world finest blue sapphires.

The emerald cut offers a modern classic for the connoisseur who appreciates tailored geometry, its step facets creating broad planes of mirror like brilliance that emphasize color and clarity rather than overt scintillation. In this purplish blue stone the effect is especially compelling, the parallel facets drawing the eye deep into the heart of the gem, revealing internal depth and subtle color zoning as a signature of natural formation rather than a flaw. The facet arrangement and superb polish allow light to move with deliberate grace, producing flashes of deep blue and cooler violet that will respond beautifully to different lighting environments, from warm evening illumination to crisp daylight. At 2.10 carat the sapphire carries presence without excess, a proportion that is both wearable and unmistakably luxurious, ideal for clients who prefer an object of desire that complements a confident, cultivated wardrobe rather than overwhelms it.

Durability is a hallmark of fine sapphires, and this specimen is ideally suited for daily wear, offering the kind of permanence that transforms a jewel into an heirloom. Composed of corundum, sapphires rank nine on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond, which confers exceptional resistance to scratches in everyday environments. This hardness, combined with notable toughness and an absence of planar cleavage, means the stone withstands the demands of regular wear in rings, necklaces, and bracelets, retaining its polish and integrity through years of use. The heat treatment applied to this Ceylon sapphire is an industry standard process performed to improve color uniformity and is stable under normal conditions, which further supports its suitability for daily adornment. For continued confidence, simple precautions will preserve the stone pristine condition, such as removing jewelry during heavy manual labor, avoiding strong acids and bleaches, and arranging for occasional professional inspections to ensure settings remain secure, a small investment that rewards with a lifetime of beauty.

To possess this purplish blue emerald cut sapphire is to claim an object that speaks to discernment and achievement, a gemstone whose provenance from Ceylon and whose exceptional finish reflect a life lived with an appreciation for rare and lasting quality. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind every offering with expert guidance on settings and design, from graceful four prong mounts that celebrate the stepped pavilion to protective bezels that combine refinement with extra security, allowing you to tailor the jewel to your lifestyle while maintaining its luxurious character. Whether envisioned as the central stone in an engagement ring, the centerpiece of a statement pendant, or the signature gem in a bespoke commission, this sapphire promises to be both an everyday companion and a treasured legacy.
