The oval shape measures 8.59 x 7.17 x 4.27 mm, the proportions balanced for grace and presence, and the mixed brilliant cut brings a modern, lively sparkle that dances at every turn. This sapphire is transparent, with superb polish and a vivid color intensity that captures attention without shouting, it is a piece that invites touch and gaze, a gem that transforms an ordinary day into a celebration. When you hold it, the deep Ceylon blue whispers of tropical skies and centuries of gem lore, and you know you are holding something both intimate and extraordinary.

Beyond the first breath of beauty, the technical qualities of this sapphire tell a story of refinement and honest care. The clarity is graded very very slightly included as evaluated at eye level, which means to the unaided eye it appears clean and alive, with any natural inclusions so minor they only affirm the gem's authenticity without interrupting its brilliance. The mixed brilliant cut has been executed to maximize return of light, giving you scintillation that feels lively and warm, and the excellent polish lets every facet reflect with crispness, the facets acting like tiny mirrors that amplify the sapphire s inner voice. This gem has been heat treated, a widely accepted enhancement that brings out the vivid blue tones while maintaining the stone s durability and natural essence. Origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, an island celebrated for producing sapphires with a special clarity and a luminous, velvety blue that feels both regal and deeply personal.

To appreciate the true value of this stone, imagine it alongside the legends of gemstone history, it carries the same soulful blue that has captivated collectors and monarchs for generations. The Logan Sapphire in the national collections is famed for its saturated blue and commanding presence, and while that gem is monumental in scale, this 2.25 carat Ceylon sapphire captures a similar vibrancy in a size more intimate and wearable, perfect for vows and anniversaries. Kashmir sapphires are legendary for their velvety cornflower blue and silky translucence, and although those are rare and historically distinct, this Ceylon sapphire echoes that depth with its vivid color intensity, giving you a taste of that storied charm. The Star of India is famed for its size and star phenomenon, and while this gem differs in that it is faceted rather than asteriated, it shares the same ancient lineage and resilience that make sapphires timeless. What sets this sapphire apart is not simply comparison, it is the way it combines the luminous Ceylon tone, the lively mixed brilliant cut, and an eye clean presentation into a gem that feels like a personal legend you can wear every day.
