2.93 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine a moment of discovery that begins beneath layers of time, heat, and pressure, a story that unfolded millions of years ago beneath the lush hills of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, where the earth breathed life into one of nature's most cherished treasures. Deep within ancient metamorphic rocks, pockets of aluminum rich fluids cooled slowly, and within those silent chambers, the mineral corundum began to take shape. Tiny traces of iron and titanium found their way into the lattice as it formed, and with the patient passage of geologic epochs, a crystal grew with a heart the color of the deep ocean, a vivid blue that seemed to hold the sky and the sea together in a single moment. This pear shape sapphire began as a whisper in the dark, a secret kept by the earth until time and human hands revealed its brilliant voice, and when it finally emerged from the soils of Ceylon, it brought with it the warmth of the island, the legacy of its rivers, and the quiet dignity of stones that remember the age of mountains.

When you hold this 2.93 carat pear shape blue sapphire, measuring 7.88 by 9.04 by 5.49 millimeters, you hold an artifact of that ancient process, refined by expert cutters into a living jewel. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to maximize both fire and brilliance, to allow the vivid color intensity to pour from every facet, and to give the stone an inner dance that catches the light as if it were sunlight on water. At eye level the clarity is very slightly included, a mark of authenticity that tells the story of its natural birth, without distracting from its serene transparency. It has an excellent polish, a finish that allows every plane to reflect light with confidence, and a symmetry that embraces the pear silhouette with graceful balance. The enhancement of heat treatment was applied with respect for the gem, a tradition that gently awakens the sapphire's innate color and clarity while preserving its essential character, and the result is a gem that sings with the color Ceylon is famous for.

This sapphire is not merely an object, it is an invitation to create memory, to mark an occasion with a token that will outlast seasons and fashions.
