5.02 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a deep ocean of color in the palm of your hand, a Vivid Blue oval sapphire that seems to hold the sky and the sea at once, a gem that promises joy and telltale warmth each time it catches the light. This C.Dunaigre certified Vivid Blue sapphire weighs 5.02 carats, and its oval proportions of 10.88 x 8.34 x 6.47 mm make it an ideal canvas for unforgettable jewelry. The mixed brilliant cut gives lively sparkle and a modern fire, while its transparency and intense color intensity draw the eye with a steady, mesmerizing blue. Evaluated at eye level and graded as eye clean, with an excellent polish and the natural provenance of Ceylon Sri Lanka, this stone is both beautiful and trusted. The enhancement of heat treatment is clearly disclosed, and the certification by C.Dunaigre gives you confidence in what you are commissioning or gifting. At The Natural Sapphire Company we celebrate the emotional stories these stones carry, and this sapphire is ready to become the center of a moment you will remember for a lifetime.

Think of this sapphire as the heart of a ring, and then imagine the possibilities. Set as a classic solitaire with four or six elegant prongs, the oval shape will appear larger and more striking, creating a timeless engagement ring that speaks of devotion and quiet strength. For someone who loves drama and brilliance, a halo of fine white diamonds will amplify the vivid blue, creating a ring that shimmers like starlight and holds a remarkable center stage. A three stone design with tapered baguette diamonds will create a narrative of past present and future, with the 5.02 carat oval at the center of a love story. For modern wearers who want a sleek profile, a low bezel setting will protect the gem while maintaining a strong contemporary elegance. Consider an east west orientation for a fashion forward alternative, or a tension setting for bold minimalism that lets the blue float above the band. The sapphire sits beautifully on a range of finger sizes as shown in the images, and we can advise on band width and prong style to suit the personality and lifestyle of the wearer.

Beyond rings this gem transforms into striking pendants, statement earrings, or bespoke cufflinks that capture attention and spark conversations. A simple pendant in a fine platinum bezel will place the vivid blue next to the heart, a daily talisman of joy and meaning. Paired drop earrings with matching smaller sapphires or diamond accents will dance with movement and catch light at every turn, perfect for anniversaries and celebratory evenings. For a vintage inspired piece, consider filigree detailing and milgrain edges that cradle the oval and tell a story of craftsmanship and heirloom quality. For those seeking bold contemporary jewelry, a wide cuff or a custom bracelet with the oval sapphire at its center will be a piece of wearable art. Accent stones offer further personalization, white diamonds for contrast and brilliance, pink sapphires for romantic warmth, or green tsavorites for a rich complementary palette. Each choice of metal will change the character of the blue, yellow gold will bring out warmth and depth, rose gold will add softness and romance, while platinum or white gold will create a crisp modern contrast that heightens the vividness of the blue.
