5.04 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

When considering the acquisition of an exquisite gemstone, educated buyers often look for a piece that not only dazzles with its beauty but also stands out in terms of rarity and quality. With this in mind, we at The Natural Sapphire Company are proud to present a truly exceptional sapphire that embodies both uniqueness and elegance. This transparent cushion-shaped blue sapphire weighs 5.04 carats and carries the prestigious certification from the GemResearch Swisslab (GRS), testifying to its authenticity and exceptional nature. At 8.98 x 8.71 x 7.19 mm, this sapphire's dimensions contribute to its distinguished presence, showcasing the gemstone's substantial size that is rarely found in sapphires of this caliber.

The sapphire features a mixed brilliant cut, enhancing its brilliance and ensuring that it catches light in the most captivating manner possible. The expertise that has gone into its cutting is evident in the stone's excellent polish, which helps reveal the vivid color intensity, an aspect that is critical in elevating a gemstone to the highest ranks of desirability. The clarity of this sapphire is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which is an impressive feat considering the natural formation processes of gemstones. Such clarity means the stone has only minute inclusions barely visible to the unaided eye, allowing the rich blue hues to take center stage without distraction.

The origin of this sapphire—Ceylon, or modern-day Sri Lanka—is another mark of its quality and authenticity. Ceylon sapphires are world-renowned for their exceptional color and clarity, making them highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs. The vibrant blue of this sapphire is emblematic of the finest specimens that the region has to offer, setting it apart from other sapphires that may lack such intensity and historical prominence. The combination of its GRS certification, remarkable clarity, vivid color, and origin makes this sapphire a sound investment for the discerning buyer seeking both aesthetic pleasure and lasting value. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we understand the significance of transparency and trust, ensuring that our customers obtain gemstones that not only meet but exceed the highest standards of excellence.
