2.58 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The hallmark of The Natural Sapphire Company, known for its commitment to unparalleled quality and exquisite gemstones, is exemplified by this exceptional Asscher-cut blue sapphire. Weighing in at a substantial 2.58 carats, this gemstone stands out as a masterpiece of natural beauty and expert craftsmanship. With precise dimensions of 7.66 x 6.89 x 4.99 mm, the octagonal shape inherited from the renowned Art Deco era brings a sense of timeless elegance to this striking gemstone. The Asscher cut, characterized by its step cuts and high crown, is renowned for its ability to enhance the sapphire's natural color while maximizing light reflection from every angle, creating a dazzling display of brilliance.

The Asscher-cut faceting style, with its carefully calculated step cuts, centralizes the view towards the depth of the gemstone, allowing the observer to admire its vivid color intensity. This particular blue sapphire is distinguished by its transparency and vivid color that captivates the eye instantly. Its clarity is graded as eye clean, ensuring the gemstone remains free of inclusions when examined at eye level. Such clarity is a rare attribute that enhances the stone’s desirability and beauty, establishing this sapphire as a premium gemstone. As light penetrates the rich blue hues, complemented by the superb quality of the cut, the gemstone radiates a vibrant spectrum of shades, drawing attention to its saturated and evenly distributed color that emerges from the heart of the stone.

Originating from Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this sapphire is a testament to the superior quality attributed to gemstones derived from this prestigious source. Ceylon sapphires are highly esteemed for their consistency of color and clarity, often possessing a unique brightness and glow due in part to the island’s distinct geological composition. Our commitment at The Natural Sapphire Company is to offer stones meticulously selected from regions like Sri Lanka, where the legacy of producing world-class sapphires is unparalleled. The origin further attests to this sapphire's authenticity and positions it as a hallmark of natural beauty, complemented by ethical sourcing and respect for the environment.

To complete its allure, this sapphire features an excellent polish that is a testament to the craftsman’s careful handling and precision. The fine detailing in the polish process ensures that each facet is perfect, resulting in a mirror-like surface that amplifies the stone's innate brilliance. It is in these fine details— the Asscher cut’s strategic arrangement of facets, the careful attention to clarity, and the dedication to achieving a perfect polish— that this blue sapphire transcends the ordinary and becomes a gemstone for true connoisseurs. It is more than just its weight and measurements; it is the culmination of nature’s artistry and human expertise.

At The Natural Sapphire Company, we take pride in not just providing gemstones, but offering pieces that tell a story of nature's marvels harnessed through human dedication. This blue sapphire, with its flawless quality, exemplifies how the convergence of skill, origin, and natural splendor can create a piece that delights collectors and aficionados alike.
