2.22 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

When you are searching for a stone that answers both the heart and the conscience, this 2.22 carat emerald cut blue sapphire from Ceylon, offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, is precisely the solution you have been seeking. Transparent and eye clean at normal viewing distance, this gem measures 8.37 by 4.91 by 4.85 millimeters, and its emerald cut emphasizes a clear, architectural elegance that flatters both contemporary and classic settings, whether you are designing the perfect engagement ring or selecting a rare centerpiece for a collector grade piece. The vivid color intensity is rich and saturated without appearing inky, a balance that reflects the best of Sri Lankan sapphires, and the excellent polish allows light to play across the broad facets with a calm, deep glow. Crucially for the mindful buyer, this sapphire has received no enhancement, meaning the color and clarity are entirely natural, a fact that preserves its character, rarity, and long term value.

For the conscious consumer who wants more than beauty, provenance matters, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we structure our sourcing to reflect that belief in every step. This gem comes from Ceylon, where we maintain direct relationships with trusted miners and cutters, enforcing traceability and promoting fair labor practices in the communities that bring these stones to light. Our sourcing approach focuses on small scale and artisanal operations where miners receive fair compensation, where safety and environmental rehabilitation are priorities, and where a portion of proceeds supports community initiatives such as education and local infrastructure. When you choose an untreated sapphire like this one, you are also choosing transparency, because untreated stones require no further disclosure, and their natural state is the result of ethical mining and careful cutting rather than artificial enhancement. We document each stone with our internal records and gemological evaluations, so you can include this sapphire in a collection built around integrity as well as beauty.

Beyond ethics and origin, this emerald cut blue sapphire fits into a conscious collector or bespoke jewelry wardrobe in ways that are both practical and poetic. Its substantial 2.22 carat weight and clean clarity make it an ideal focal point for a solitaire engagement ring, a striking three stone setting, or a custom pendant that will be worn every day, because sapphires are highly durable and retain their allure through generations. The emerald cut offers a refined silhouette that complements architectural ring designs and allows skilled setters to showcase the stone with minimal metal intrusion, which amplifies the stone to the eye without excess ornamentation. Collectors will value the untreated Ceylon origin and the balance of tone and saturation, attributes that speak to long term desirability and the quiet luxury of natural color. Our gem specialists at The Natural Sapphire Company can advise on matched settings, metal choices, and design styles that respect both the stone and your values, and we offer secure purchase terms and aftercare options so that this sapphire remains a cherished, responsibly acquired piece in your collection for years to come.
