3.50 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

I have the pleasure of introducing a truly radiant treasure from The Natural Sapphire Company, a cushion shaped blue sapphire that seems to hold the deep calm of the ocean and the promise of a lifelong memory. This gem weighs 3.50 carats, with dimensions of 9.41 x 7.18 x 5.84 mm, and is fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes sparkle while retaining a warm, classic silhouette. Its clarity grade is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, giving you the confidence of a gem that is transparent and luminous, with character that only a natural stone can show. The color intensity is vivid, a saturated blue that shifts from velvety royal tones in shadow to electric brilliance when it catches the light, and the polish has been judged excellent, producing a clean, reflective surface that dances with fire and depth. Sourced from the storied mines of Ceylon in Sri Lanka, and enhanced by traditional heat treatment to reveal its fullest color potential, this sapphire brings together natural origin, honest enhancement disclosure, and masterful cutting into one unforgettable jewel.

Beyond its physical attributes, this sapphire carries with it a lineage that reaches back through centuries of tradition and admiration. Sapphires from Ceylon have been prized by kings, priests, and lovers alike, revered for their pure hues and perceived ability to inspire wisdom and fidelity. In cultures across the world similar blue sapphires have been set into crowns and reliquaries, chosen as tokens of trust between partners, and worn as talismans for calm and clear thought during moments of decision. When you hold this cushion cut stone from The Natural Sapphire Company, you hold a piece of that heritage, a gem shaped by geological time and human hands into a symbol of commitment and continuity. The mixed brilliant cut bridges the old and the new, honoring classic cushion proportions beloved by past generations, while introducing a modern faceting scheme that enhances scintillation, making the stone equally at home in a vintage inspired engagement ring or a contemporary solitaire that speaks of fresh beginnings.

Imagine presenting this sapphire as the heart of an engagement ring, a promise that will be passed down as an heirloom, or wearing it as a solitary pendant that anchors your daily joys and important moments. The vivid blue will stand out against yellow gold for a rich, traditional statement, or it will sing alongside cool platinum or white gold for a refined, modern elegance. Its 3.50 carat presence is generous without overpowering, a perfect center stone for a range of settings, and the cushion shape offers flattering symmetry that sits naturally on the hand or at the throat. At The Natural Sapphire Company we take pride in pairing exceptional gemstones with thoughtful design, and I will personally guide you through setting options that honor the stone and your story, from bezel settings that celebrate the gem in an enduring frame, to halo designs that amplify sparkle for celebratory occasions. We are transparent about the enhancement history, noting the stone has been heat treated, a respected and stable method used for centuries to reveal the sapphire's true color, and we welcome questions about certification and care so your stone can be enjoyed across generations.

This cushion shaped Ceylon blue sapphire is more than a beautiful object, it is a vessel for memory, a catalyst for joy, and a bridge between history and your future. When you choose this gem from The Natural Sapphire Company, you are selecting a stone with a proud origin, meticulous cutting, and a vivid personality that will catch the eye and hold the heart. Allow it to become the setting for a promise, a milestone, or a daily reminder of love and beauty, and we will stand beside you with expertise and warmth as you bring this radiant piece into your life.
