2.35 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The 2.35 carat round blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship and advanced faceting techniques that define our commitment to excellence. Sourced from the illustrious mines of Ceylon, or presently known as Sri Lanka, this exquisite gemstone embodies a fusion of heritage and modernity. Its dimensions, precisely measured at 7.74 x 7.68 x 4.98 mm, are a testament to the precision cutting that allows the sapphire to reflect and refract light with an unrivaled brilliance. The geometric faceting employed in this gemstone follows a mixed brilliant cut, a strategic choice that optimizes its optical properties, creating an incandescent display that captivates even the most discerning connoisseurs.

The geometric intricacy of this sapphire’s faceting style is pivotal to its aesthetic and luminescent appeal. A cornerstone of this design, the mixed brilliant cut, integrates the best elements of traditional round cuts with strategic variances, fostering an unmatched interplay of light. By merging multiple faceting patterns, this technique intensifies both the reflection and refraction of light, resulting in an augmented scintillation effect that enhances the stone's inherent qualities. Through this sophisticated cutting method, the sapphire achieves a superior brilliance that is both timeless and distinctly modern, catering to aficionados who appreciate the delicate balance between complexity and elegance.

Color grading is instrumental in defining the personality and allure of any gemstone, and this sapphire boasts a vivid color intensity that does not simply rest on superficial appeal. The saturation of its azure hue is a reflection of superior geological conditions found only in top-tier sapphires from Ceylon. The gem's eye-clean clarity, evaluated at eye level, further elevates its standing, free from inclusions or imperfections visible to the naked eye. Each glance at the stone presents an unmarred, translucent vision of nature’s artistry, a factor significantly enhancing its value for the knowledgeable collector. It is this combination of color and clarity that sets this sapphire apart, aligning with the expectations of those who seek both beauty and rarity.

Beyond the intrinsic beauty of the stone, superior craftsmanship plays a critical role in delivering a flawless finish. The sapphire's excellent polish speaks to the artisanal skill employed by our lapidaries, ensuring a smooth surface that enhances light reflection and gives a mirror-like finish. This meticulous attention to detail assures that every facet is cut to precision, maximizing the stone’s overall gleam and assuring longevity of its luster over time. The Natural Sapphire Company prides itself on upholding the highest standards in finishing techniques, presenting consumers with gemstones that are as delightful to hold as they are to behold. In creating pieces with such exceptional detail, we cater to the connoisseur who recognizes the intrinsic value of expert craftsmanship wedded with natural beauty.
