2.55 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Burma (Myanmar)

The 2.55 carat cushion shape blue sapphire offered by The Natural Sapphire Company exemplifies a commitment to superior quality through both its physical and optical characteristics. The dimensions of this gemstone, precisely measured at 8.00 x 7.74 x 4.63 mm, offer a substantial surface area which accentuates its aesthetic prominence while maintaining a balanced proportion that is desirable in high-grade sapphires. The weight of 2.55 carats signifies not only the substantial nature of this sapphire but also adheres to the standards of premium quality sought after by connoisseurs who appreciate both the size and the rarity of such gems.

Among the most striking features of this sapphire is its mixed brilliant cut, a sophisticated faceting style designed to maximize light refraction and reflectivity. By incorporating elements of both step-cut and brilliant faceting techniques, this design optimally exploits the inherent optical properties of the gemstone, resulting in enhanced brilliance and sparkle. Additionally, its very slightly included (VS1) clarity grade, as evaluated at eye level, ensures that minor inclusions are minimally visible. This clarity grade assures collectors and buyers of the gem's superior quality, further amplified by its vivid color intensity that breathes life into every facet of the stone, offering a saturation and tone balance that distinguishes it from other gems in its category.

Craftsmanship is evident in the sapphire's excellent polish. This finish ensures that the surface not only gleams under various lighting conditions but also achieves a smoothness that enhances tactile interaction for pieces that will be used in fine jewelry settings. Its origin from Burma, officially known as Myanmar, adds an additional layer of value. Burmese sapphires are esteemed for their distinctive hue and quality, often considered among the best in the world. With its remarkable attributes of weight, cut, clarity, and origin, this blue sapphire stands as a testament to the expertise and discerning eye of The Natural Sapphire Company, appealing to buyers who value these fine facets of craftsmanship and rarity.
