7.84 Ct. Blue Cabochon Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A singular presence of refined magnificence, this 7.84 carat cushion shape blue sapphire is an object of desire for the connoisseur who recognizes true rarity, presented with the assured provenance and care of The Natural Sapphire Company. Measuring 13.33 millimeters by 9.44 millimeters by 7.22 millimeters, the gem is fashioned in a sugar loaf cut that elevates its transparent body into a sculpted dome of pure color. Under the eye the stone rewards with a vivid color intensity that reads as a deep, resonant blue, and an excellent polish that allows light to tape and glide across its smooth crown. Clarity is described as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a subtle signature that testifies to the gem natural origins while leaving the field of view unfettered by distraction. The proportions and finish of this cushion form deliver a presence that feels both monumental and intimate, ready to command a bespoke setting that will announce refined taste without ostentation.

Hailing from the storied deposits of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this sapphire carries the heritage of an island renowned for producing the world most coveted blues, a lineage of color prized through the ages. Enhancement by heat treatment has been applied, a traditional and stable refinement that deepens hue and clarifies tone, offered here with full transparency so that ownership is informed and confident. The gem is of corundum, with a Mohs hardness of nine, a quality that gives it exceptional resistance to abrasion and ensures that the surface polish will endure through daily wear and ritual celebrations alike. Under normal conditions the vivid color will remain steadfast, and with simple, considered care such as gentle cleaning with warm water and mild soap, and occasional professional polishing, the sapphire will retain its luminous depth. Set in precious metal the sugar loaf profile will catch ambient light in soft, sensuous flashes, a living jewel that responds to movement and mood, sustaining fascination rather than fleeting brilliance.

To possess this cushion sapphire is to claim a small but unmistakable victory for taste, a statement that beauty and discernment are part of how one chooses to live. The Natural Sapphire Company presents this stone not merely as a commodity, but as a future heirloom, an element of legacy that will be admired by the wearer and passed forward with stories attached. When mounted by a master jeweler its scale and color will masterfully balance modern lines and classical restraint, becoming the centerpiece of a ring, a pendant, or a bespoke creation conceived to highlight its sugar loaf silhouette. Over years and decades the gem will continue to captivate, its rich blue deepening in the memory of those who behold it, its polished surface reflecting the lives it accompanies. For the collector who seeks more than adornment, and for the discerning client who understands that rarity is measured in nuance and provenance, this Ceylon cushion sapphire is an elegant affirmation of achievement and timeless taste.
