Our offering is a truly captivating 2.38 carat oval-shaped blue sapphire, a gemstone that will undoubtedly hold the attention of any discerning collector or enthusiast. With dimensions of 7.47 x 6.62 x 5.74 mm, this sapphire embodies elegance and sophistication in a size that makes it both distinctive and highly sought after. Its mixed brilliant cut enhances its inherent beauty, allowing it to radiate light with exceptional brilliance and depth. This design maximizes the interplay of light within the stone, creating captivating optical effects that are sure to delight the viewer from every angle.
Boasting a clarity grade classified as very slightly included, this blue sapphire represents an impressive balance between natural charm and visual purity. While the delicate traces of inclusions do not detract from its allure, they remind us of the sapphire's authentic formation deep within the earth. The inclusions are minimal, particularly when evaluated at eye level, ensuring the gem presents itself with remarkable clarity that most outside of experts would struggle to detect without magnification. This transparency is further accentuated by the sapphire's vivid color intensity, a rich saturation that echoes the deep blue of the Ceylon seas. Ceylon, known today as Sri Lanka, produces sapphires that are celebrated worldwide for their exquisite tones and resilient qualities. The origin of this gemstone adds a layer of exclusivity that appeals to those who have a nuanced appreciation for fine gemological origin stories.
The sapphire’s polish is rated as excellent, ensuring that every facet is meticulously finished to perfection. This high-quality finish allows the sapphire to mesmerize as it interacts with varying lighting conditions. Under direct sunlight, the gem's surface showcases an extraordinary brilliance, reflecting light as dazzling flashes of blue that capture the vibrancy of a clear sky. In indoor settings, whether under warm incandescent lighting or cooler LED lights, the sapphire's color exhibits versatility, shifting subtly yet remaining true to its enthralling hue. Candlelight or softer ambient surroundings coax out a romantic deep violet indigo, a characteristic cherished by those who understand the multifaceted nature of rare gemstones. This versatility makes it an exquisite piece suitable both for everyday adornment or special occasions, promising to make its bearer a topic of admiration and conversation.
