2.52 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This pear shape blue sapphire carries the weight of centuries of admiration, a gemstone whose lineage traces back to the storied mines of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a region celebrated for producing sapphires of exceptional hue. At 2.52 carats and measuring 10.16 x 7.06 x 4.66 mm, this transparent gem is cut into a refined pear silhouette with a mixed brilliant cut that marries classic form with modern sparkle. The vivid color intensity and excellent polish allow light to dance through the pavilion and crown, revealing deep, saturated blue tones that recall ocean depths and royal regalia. Clarity is described as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the gem presents a clean face to the viewer and a purity that complements its dramatic color. Heat treated in a manner standard to fine sapphires, this stone retains its natural character and provenance, and it is offered to collectors and connoisseurs by The Natural Sapphire Company, a name synonymous with careful sourcing and transparent documentation.

From an investment perspective this 2.52 carat Ceylon sapphire embodies attributes that have historically supported long term appreciation. Size and shape matter to the market, and a pear cut of this weight is large enough to be coveted for bespoke jewellery while remaining liquid for resale, especially in a classic, timeless cut. The vivid color intensity is the single most important driver of value in blue sapphires, and when combined with a high polish and eye clean appearance, it signals strong demand among collectors who prize color and presence. Origin from Ceylon enhances desirability, as provenance from Sri Lanka carries both historical prestige and a proven track record in the auction rooms and private collections. While heat treatment is common and accepted in the trade, the clarity and color of this transparent stone distinguish it from more heavily altered material, positioning it for steady appreciation as natural supply tightens and global interest in colored gemstones grows. Purchasing through The Natural Sapphire Company ensures that your acquisition is supported by expert evaluation and clear information about treatment and origin, making this sapphire not only a beautiful heirloom but also a considered addition to a long term investment portfolio.
