2.75 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Thailand

This exquisite transparent 2.75 carat oval blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is a compelling choice for an educated buyer seeking both beauty and enduring value. The stone measures 8.91 x 6.97 x 4.97 mm, a proportion that gives it a commanding face up presence without appearing oversized for everyday wear. The vivid color intensity is immediately striking, a deep, saturated blue that reads as traditional sapphire blue while retaining lively tonal variation across the table and facets. With a mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish, the stone displays crisp facet junctions and lively reflections, making it a specimen that photographs well and performs even better in hand. For buyers who prioritize transparent quality and visual impact, this sapphire combines classic color with modern cutting techniques to deliver both elegance and statement.

From a gemological perspective the mixed brilliant cut is an intentional design to balance brilliance and color. The crown and pavilion facets are arranged to maximize light return while preserving the depth of color that gives the sapphire its vivid character. The clarity grade is slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates small natural inclusions are present but they do not materially compromise the stone s transparency or light performance when mounted. These inclusions also serve as natural fingerprints of origin and authenticity, and they are often preferred by connoisseurs who seek untreated looking natural character even when treatment is disclosed. This sapphire has been heat treated, a common and widely accepted enhancement in the trade that stabilizes color and improves clarity while remaining stable for normal wear. The excellent polish further enhances the optical performance by allowing clean light passage and sharp mirror like facet reflections.

The physical measurements and slightly included clarity grade together make this sapphire particularly well suited to a statement piece. At 2.75 carats and an 8.91 mm length, the stone has real visual presence on a finger, pendant, or brooch, creating a focal point that commands attention without overwhelming proportional settings. The oval shape contributes to an elongated appearance on the hand and offers a flattering silhouette for most mounting styles. Because the inclusions are slight at eye level the gem remains transparent and lively, enabling the brilliant facets to exhibit scintillation and flash that are essential for a memorable statement gemstone. Designers and clients often prefer such a balance when creating a solitaire ring, a halo setting that amplifies brilliance, or a dramatic three stone composition where the center sapphire is the undisputed star of the design.
