3.52 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Across centuries and civilizations the blue sapphire has carried a language of sovereignty and devotion, a language that this exquisite Ceylon stone speaks with quiet authority. Mined from the storied soils of Sri Lanka, once known as Ceylon, this transparent gem is a Other certified Blue Royal Blue sapphire weighing 3.52 carats. Its oval shape measures 10.62 x 7.73 x 5.15 mm, a form that has long been cherished for its harmonious balance between brilliance and grace. At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor the traditions that have elevated sapphires from talisman to treasure, and this vivid sapphire invokes that same lineage of use in crowns, signet jewels, and sacred talismans that sought to bind beauty with spiritual protection.

The mixed brilliant cut of this sapphire has been chosen to echo centuries of lapidary skill, combining precise faceting to capture light with a silhouette that flatters the hand or a setting in classic jewelry. With a clarity grade described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the gem retains the transparency and life that collectors and connoisseurs value, while its vivid color intensity delivers the deep, regal blue so prized in historical examples. The excellent polish enhances each facet plane, allowing scintillation reminiscent of candlelit courts and ocean deep skies that have inspired poets and rulers alike. This combination of cut clarity and finish makes the stone ideal for a solitary ring or a timeless pendant that carries the quiet dignity of a legacy gem.

Heat treatment has been applied to enhance and stabilize the sapphire, a traditional and widely accepted practice that jewelers have used for generations to reveal the purest expression of a stone. When handled by experienced craftsmen this treatment presents a stable and enduring color that will retain its character through years of wearing, reflecting the same considerations that ancient gem cutters made when refining a stone for a coronation or devotion. The origin of Ceylon imparts a characteristic luminosity and lively blue that sets these sapphires apart, a region celebrated for producing gems that bridge the sensuous depth of twilight with the clarity of high skies. At The Natural Sapphire Company we provide full disclosure about treatments and provenance, so collectors may wear or present this stone with confidence in both its beauty and its history.

This sapphire is more than a mineral specimen, it is a living link to traditions that prize fidelity, wisdom, and sovereign elegance. Throughout history blue sapphires have been entrusted as talismans against harm, as symbols of faithfulness in marriage, and as emblems of rank and refinement. Placed within a classic four claw setting or embraced by a halo of diamonds, this 3.52 carat Ceylon sapphire will speak to those who revere continuity and meaning in their jewelry. The images offered show scale and perspective, and The Natural Sapphire Company stands ready to assist with bespoke settings and historical context, ensuring that the gem you choose becomes a cherished heirloom that honors the same traditions that have exalted sapphires for millennia.
