2.19 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This transparent 2.19 carat cushion shape bluish green sapphire measures 7.37 x 6.72 x 4.61 mm, and presents a balanced face up size with pleasing depth, ideal for an elegant solitaire or a refined halo setting. The mixed brilliant cut marries pavilion facet geometry with a faceted crown, producing lively scintillation while preserving the stone face up color. Clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, allowing the gem to display clear window free view across the table, and an excellent polish contributes to crisp facet junctions and clean light return. Color is medium in intensity, a blend of blue tones with green modifiers that shifts subtly with viewing angle and lighting, and the stone is natural with no enhancement, sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region renowned for sapphires with delicate color and satiny luster. The combination of cushion outline, mixed brilliant cutting, and the stone proportions emphasizes both brilliance and color, making this sapphire versatile for contemporary and classic jewelry designs.

From a gemological and practical perspective this sapphire represents a fine example of an unenhanced Ceylon material, characteristics that collectors and connoisseurs often prize. The absence of heat or other treatments is an important factor in valuation, and it reflects the natural character of the crystal and its original color zoning. The very slightly included clarity grade indicates inclusions that are minor and do not detract from the overall transparency or visual appeal when mounted, while the excellent polish maximizes durability against surface wear under normal use. Sapphires rank nine on the Mohs scale, providing strong resistance to daily wear, and the cushion silhouette with modest dimensions will sit well in protective bezel or partial bezel settings for ring applications, as well as in classic prong settings for pendants or earrings. The Natural Sapphire Company provides provenance information and careful cutting and grading notes to assist with design decisions, and these attributes should be considered alongside personal preference for face up color and the specific metal and setting style chosen.

Beyond physical attributes, this bluish green sapphire is associated with a range of metaphysical qualities that many traditions and modern practitioners attribute to corundum stones. The blue component is traditionally linked to mental clarity, communication, and insight, supporting calm focus and thoughtful expression, while the green aspect is often associated with growth, renewal, and emotional balance, encouraging compassion and a measured response to change. Together the teal to bluish green hue is commonly said to harmonize the throat and heart centers, fostering both truthful speech and empathy. In this context the stone is described as a support for clear intention setting, enhanced intuition, and steady resilience during periods of transition, and it is also connected with attracting stability and abundance in practical affairs. These associations are rooted in historical and contemporary symbolic practices, and they are presented here as cultural and metaphysical perspectives rather than scientific claims.

Care recommendations are straightforward to preserve the long term beauty of this sapphire, given its natural state and fine polish. Routine cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush will remove surface oils and dust, and a professional cleaning is advisable when mounting or after prolonged wear. Ultrasonic cleaning may be used with caution depending on the presence and orientation of internal features, so consult a qualified jeweler for a specific recommendation prior to employing mechanical cleaning methods.
