5.10 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There is a stillness captured within this 5.10 carat transparent sapphire, a quiet tide of bluish green that seems to hold the memory of sea glass and rainforest shadows. Cut into a radiant shape that measures 8.96 x 7.93 x 7.26 millimeters, this gem wears precision like a poem, each facet a little stanza that reflects light in soft, unexpected ways. The clarity registers as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, an honest whisper of nature beneath its surface that only deepens the stone’s feeling of authenticity. With intense color intensity and an excellent polish, the sapphire shimmers with a depth that reads as both ocean and canopy, a color story rooted in the storied soils of Ceylon, Sri Lanka. Enhanced by careful heat treatment to reveal its fullest personality, the gem arrives at your hands fully composed, a luminous heart ready to be set into an heirloom of tomorrow. When you hold it, you sense both the craft of cutter and the slow patience of the earth, and you understand why The Natural Sapphire Company presents this as a chapter of living beauty.

Imagine this bluish green radiance kissing skin in morning light, and the ways that its hues will harmonize with every tone you might wear. On fair skin the sapphire appears as a jewel of deep sea promise, the blue notes lifting and brightening the complexion while the green brings a verdant, romantic contrast akin to moss on pale stone. For warm undertones, the gem leans toward its greener soul, creating a complementary duet when paired with yellow gold that warms and amplifies its inner glow, making the color feel richly botanical and warmly alive. On olive and medium complexions the stone sings in balanced tones, neither too cool nor too warm, offering a versatility that is both understated and striking, especially when set in rose gold that coaxes out the stone’s softer, more intimate tones. Against deep skin the sapphire becomes a jewel of night and ocean, its intense color offering a luminous map against darker canvases, while platinum or white gold settings let the bluish facets flash like stars, elegant and utterly magnetic. The radiant cut gives this 5.10 carat gem a geometry that scatters light across the hand, so whether you wear it as a single solitaire, in a halo of diamonds, or flanked by delicate side stones, the interplay between metal, setting, and skin will allow the sapphire to tell a different love story with every movement.

To wear this sapphire is to carry an island dusk, a memory of Sri Lankan horizons and long mineral archives, made intimate by human hands. The stone’s excellent polish ensures that each glance is rewarded with a clean, reflective face, and the very very slightly included clarity becomes part of its charm, a reminder of the earth beneath ingenuity. Consider a low claw setting to showcase the radiant shape and maximize the stone’s natural brilliance, or a bezel for a modern, wearable romance that protects the edges and frames the bluish green like an emerald window. A warm gold setting will nudge the color toward its green heart, a cool platinum mount will pull the blue forward, and a mixed metal design will allow the stone to shift its accent depending on your mood and outfit. At The Natural Sapphire Company we imagine this gem becoming a promise ring, an anniversary center, or a solitary treasure passed across generations, each placement revealing new facets of its soul. We invite you to see how this Ceylon sapphire complements your skin, your life, and your love, and to let its intense color and radiant cut be the language of affection that you choose to speak.
