Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka and offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, this sapphire is a declaration of true and timeless beauty, polished to an excellent finish and presented exactly as nature intended, with no enhancement. At 7.31 by 7.23 by 4.98 mm the proportions have been carefully balanced to give a presence that is both bold and elegant, a perfect bridge between everyday grace and special occasion splendor.

What makes this sapphire rare, and what gives it such enduring value, is its weight. At 2.27 carats this stone sits in a size range that immediately elevates it above the many smaller sapphires that fill the market, because carat weight is more than a number, it is the measure of scarcity. Larger natural sapphires, particularly those that display a vivid color and remain untreated, are exponentially rarer than their smaller counterparts. Each additional fraction of a carat reduces the available supply of comparable stones, and for a collector or a lover seeking something singular, the 2.27 carat mark is significant, it amplifies desirability and commands attention without ever feeling ostentatious. The clarity of this gem is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means to the unaided eye the stone reads as clean and pure, while under magnification the minor inclusions tell a story of natural formation, a tiny signature of the earths work that adds character rather than distraction.

Beyond the numbers, the way this sapphire carries its weight speaks to its craftsmanship and potential to become a cherished heirloom, because weight interacts with color and cut to create a living brilliance. The mixed brilliant cut translates more material into scintillation, and at this scale the pavilion depth and crown proportions, conferred by the 7.31 by 7.23 by 4.98 mm dimensions, throw light back to the eye in a lively play of blue, from electric flashes at the table to deeper velvety tones in the heart of the stone. An untreated Ceylon sapphire of vivid color and this carat weight is especially prized, because treatment free stones retain geological authenticity and command a premium in the market, they are the rare pages of the mineral record that collectors and lovers seek. Imagine this gem set as a center stone in a simple solitaire that allows its 2.27 carats to speak with quiet confidence, or imagine it bathed in the gentle sparkle of a halo, where its natural brilliance becomes a chorus, a thousand points of light celebrating a life event or a new chapter.
