2.70 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are gems, and then there are statements, and this 2.70 carat oval bluish green sapphire is a quiet, inevitable arrival. Expertly sourced by The Natural Sapphire Company from the storied soils of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this stone measures 8.99 by 7.52 by 5.18 millimeters, a perfect proportion for a centerpiece that will command attention without ostentation. The mixed brilliant cut has been executed with precision to marry depth and fire, and the excellent polish ensures each facet speaks clearly to the light. Transparent and of medium intense color intensity, this sapphire reveals a sophisticated palette where blue and green meet, a hue as rare as it is wearable, and the clarity is judged as very very slightly included at eye level, a testament to natural origin and visual purity. Enhancement by heat treatment is disclosed, a traditional and accepted practice that stabilizes and refines the stone, allowing its true character to sing.

To hold this sapphire is to hold an ocean at dawn, a surface that breathes with possibility. The bluish green tone moves with the light, sometimes leaning toward oceanic teal, sometimes toward a muted sea glass green, creating a living finish that is never static. The mixed brilliant cut creates a modern interplay of scintillation and depth, offering flashes of pinpoint sparkle across the crown and a comforting depth through the pavilion. The very very slightly included clarity reads as an affirmation of authenticity, small internal signatures that remind the wearer that the gem is born of earth and time, not of fabrication. The excellent polish lends a luminous skin to the stone, so that each movement of the hand translates to a subtle dialogue with light, and the dimensions make it ideal for a single stone setting where the color can breathe, or for a refined halo that emphasizes its unique hue.

Imagine a story as old as the sea and as intimate as a whispered vow. In a village that rises on the edge of Ceylon tea terraces, where light folds over green leaves and the horizon can seem to be painted in the watercolors found in this stone, two lovers promised to return to the places that raised them. One day, in the weeded banks where monsoon rivers slow into sapphire pools, a small piece of the earth sent up a gleam, rescued by hands that had known toil and tenderness. That gleam is this gem, its bluish green color reminiscent of the lagoon where they met, and its very very slightly included clarity like the secret laugh they kept between them. Heat, in this tale, is the patient fire of craft, a subtle refinement given by the hands who honor the stone, revealing without forcing its heart. To wear this sapphire is to carry that evening with you, a private scene of light and promise, a proof that some treasures are not only found, they are remembered and chosen.

To claim this sapphire is to make a considered declaration about taste and pedigree. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind its provenance and craftsmanship, and this gem invites the most personal of commissions. It will sing in a classic solitaire for the decisive collector, or it will command modern elegance paired with warm rose gold and a delicate halo of brilliant cut diamonds that temper and elevate its bluish green depth. Its dimensions and weight render it perfectly suited to both statement rings and bespoke pendants, where the mixed brilliant cut can be admired from all angles. For the discerning client, this sapphire offers both aesthetic pleasure and the quiet assurance of an heirloom quality object, one that will travel generations as testament to refined choices.
