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

From the deep heart of Ceylon, a gemstone tradition that stretches back through centuries and royal courts, this pear shaped blue sapphire carries with it the quiet dignity of history and the serene promise of endurance. Handled by artisans and admired by kings, Ceylon sapphires have long been prized for a luminous blue that seems to hold both the tropical sky and the calm of the ocean in a single glance. This particular stone, a translucent cabochon cut measuring 8.11 by 6.05 by 4.15 millimeters, presents that legacy in a gentle, wearable form. Its rounded, polished surface encourages a soft play of light rather than sharp facets, inviting the wearer to slow down and appreciate the depth of color, the subtle internal textures, and the way a well cut cabochon can function as a timeless window to nature. A gem like this is most at home in heirloom pieces, set as the central heart of a pendant or the focal point of an elegant ring, where it can become part of a personal story and an enduring family tradition.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we respect both the provenance and the personality of each stone, and this sapphire speaks clearly, with a carat weight of 1.91, a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, vivid color intensity, and an excellent polish. Enhancement is heat treated, a time honored and stable process used to bring out the best tonal uniformity in Ceylon sapphires. The cabochon cut enhances the silky, luminous quality of the blue, making it ideal for classic settings that emphasize continuity and grace rather than fleeting trends. If you seek a gem that marries historical resonance with everyday wearability, this sapphire offers a rare balance. I would be delighted to discuss setting options, provide additional imagery or certification details, and advise on care to ensure this stone becomes a cherished piece that may be passed down through generations.
