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

Introducing this exquisite 2.06 carat blue sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company, a true testament to our commitment to offering gemstones of unparalleled quality and distinction. This exceptional gemstone is meticulously cut into a cushion shape, measuring 6.38 x 6.33 x 5.02 mm, and adorned with a sugar loaf cut that enhances its overall allure. Originating from Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this sapphire possesses an intense blue hue that is both captivating and rare. Known for yielding some of the world's most renowned sapphires, Ceylon's geological conditions contribute significantly to the vibrant saturation and pure tone found in this jewel. The intense color intensity of this sapphire is further enhanced through careful heat treatment, a common practice in the industry to bring out the most vibrant hues of the gemstone.

The allure of this sapphire is elevated by its remarkable translucency, making it a treasure for connoisseurs and gem enthusiasts alike. While it is graded as 'included' at eye level clarity, these natural inclusions serve as a testament to its genuine origin and journey from deep within the earth. The sapphire’s excellent polish ensures that it catches the light elegantly, displaying an extraordinary luster that draws the eye and heart. When compared to sapphires from other famed locations such as Kashmir and Madagascar, the hue of Ceylon sapphires often showcases a lively cornflower or royal blue, making them highly sought after for their classic appeal and timeless beauty. While Kashmir sapphires are famed for their velvety texture and rich saturation, and Madagascar sapphires offer a rainbow of colors, Ceylon sapphires stand out for their transparency and brilliance, capturing light in a truly unique way.

This gem's carefully crafted sugar loaf cut creates a dome-like appearance that enhances its inherent color play, adding dimension and character that are sure to dazzle any admirer. The rarity of such a well-cut and vibrant sapphire, combined with its noteworthy origin, makes it a highly valuable addition to any sophisticated collection. The translucence of this piece ensures that whether set in a ring or pendant, there will be an endearing play of light that highlights its fine quality.
