2.54 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional transparent blue sapphire weighs 2.54 carats, and measures 10.15 x 6.97 x 4.36 mm, with an elegant oval outline and a mixed brilliant cut that balances table brilliance and pavilion depth for lively light return. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is slightly included, which means the stone retains excellent visual appeal, with minor internal characteristics that do not detract from its impact when set in jewelry. The color is vivid, a saturated Ceylon blue that displays lively flashes and attractive depth, and the polish has been graded excellent, resulting in a high surface luster and crisp facet definition. Origin from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, contributes to the stone s desirability, as Sri Lankan sapphires are historically prized for their pure blue hues and even color distribution. The sapphire has been heat treated, a standard and stable enhancement widely accepted in the trade, applied to optimize color and clarity while remaining permanent under normal wear, and such treatment is disclosed transparently by The Natural Sapphire Company.

Beyond its beauty, this sapphire is inherently durable and well suited for daily wear in rings, pendants, and bracelets, because corundum, the mineral species of sapphire, rates 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond, and offers outstanding scratch resistance and long term stability. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish help mask minor surface wear, and a protective setting such as a bezel or secure prongs will minimize the risk of edge nicking while showcasing the vivid blue color. For the discerning buyer, the combination of a classic oval shape, 2.54 carats of vivid Ceylon blue, and responsible disclosure of heat treatment represents strong value, since the stone offers both visual presence and the technical attributes collectors and jewelers seek. If you intend daily wear, routine care with gentle cleaning in warm soapy water, periodic inspection of the setting, and professional servicing when needed will keep the gem performing beautifully for generations. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind this sapphire s provenance and quality, and we are available to advise on ideal mounting options to maximize protection and presentation, ensuring this sapphire becomes a lasting and wearable centerpiece.
