6.23 Ct. Bluish Purple Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This 6.23 carat oval bluish purple sapphire measures 11.52 by 9.15 by 7.46 mm, and it stands apart from ordinary stones through a combination of precise cutting, exceptional transparency, and select origin. Cut in a mixed brilliant style, the pavilion and crown work together to maximize light return, producing a dynamic play of brilliance and scintillation that reads as alive from every angle. The clarity grade is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means the gem presents as effectively eye clean, and that eye clean appearance allows the medium intense color intensity to sing without obstruction. An excellent polish ensures each facet is a perfectly smooth mirror, so light enters and exits with minimal disruption. Heat treated to enhance color, and sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, this sapphire balances natural origin with optimized appearance, offering a hue that is fresher and more luminous than many darker, heavily saturated stones on the market.

Compared to typical commercial sapphires that may show cloudiness, poor facet symmetry, or heavy inclusions that interrupt visual flow, this gem delivers clarity and cut that elevate its perceived size and fire, making it look larger and more lively in jewelry settings. Where some sapphires trade brilliance for deep, flat color, this stone achieves a rare harmony between medium intense saturation and exceptional light performance, which makes it versatile for both classic and modern designs. The mixed brilliant cut produces more sparkle than standard step or poorly proportioned ovals, and the near eye clean clarity lets that sparkle remain unmasked. When you compare natural, heat treated Ceylon sapphires to untreated material at similar price points, you often find that the treated stone offers far better value, because the enhancement is stable and preserves natural character while delivering the rich tone buyers desire. At The Natural Sapphire Company we select, finish, and present stones with an emphasis on optical excellence and recognizability, so you receive a gem that is not only rare by carat weight and origin, but superior in how its flawless to the eye quality enhances its beauty from every viewpoint. This sapphire is ideal for a statement ring or heirloom piece where brilliance, color, and provenance all matter.
