2.91 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The blue sapphire, weighing an exquisite 2.91 carats, is a prime example of the meticulous craftsmanship synonymous with Ceylon gemstones. Its pear shape, with dimensions measuring 11.89 by 6.40 by 5.08 millimeters, offers a unique silhouette that attracts attention with its elegant taper. Expertly designed with a mixed brilliant cut, this sapphire exemplifies exceptional brilliance and light performance, comparable to the most distinguished jewels found in the world's finest collections. The mixed brilliant cut incorporates elements of both brilliant and step cuts, resulting in an enhanced play of light and remarkable depth that invites careful scrutiny from even the most discerning gem enthusiasts.

The clarity grade of the sapphire is rated as very very slightly included at eye level, signifying that the inclusions are practically invisible to the naked eye and can be seen only under magnification. This denotes a rare quality level that significantly enhances the gem's visual appeal and value. Furthermore, the intense color intensity of the sapphire is a result of its origin—Sri Lanka, known historically for producing some of the most vivid and rich blue sapphires. This color intensity speaks to the gem's deep, saturating blue hues, offering a captivating allure that holds the potential to mesmerize even the most refined gemstone collectors. The excellent polish further amplifies its visual excellence, allowing each facet to project the rich blue vibrancy distinctly associated with Ceylon sapphires, allowing none of the stone's natural beauty to be lost or diminished.

When considering custom jewelry designs, this sapphire serves as an outstanding centerpiece capable of harmonizing with an array of complementary gemstones. The versatile nature of this pear-shaped sapphire allows it to pair seamlessly with smaller diamonds or white sapphires, providing a stunning contrast through their lighter hues and creating a composition that emphasizes the central gem's rich blue tone. These lighter stones act as a brilliant white halo, magnifying the dark allure of the central blue sapphire. Alternatively, pairing it with smaller blue sapphires can establish a tone-on-tone visual impact, elevating its regal air and evoking classical motifs reminiscent of royal adornment. Additionally, surrounding the sapphire with complementary stones such as emeralds or rubies introduces a vibrant, colorful palette that enhances the viewing experience and appeals to those with an appreciation for lively artistic expressions in gemstone arrangements.
