1.35 Ct. Bi Color / Parti Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the riverbeds of Ceylon Sri Lanka to your hand, this pear shaped bi color parti sapphire carries the light and history of its birthplace. Miners who know the land well found a crystal whose transparency and medium color intensity hinted at something special, and The Natural Sapphire Company brought it to life with care. At 1.35 carat and measuring 8.80 x 5.49 x 3.87 mm this gem was examined and sorted for its remarkable balance of tone and clarity, very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a clarity that preserves natural character without distracting from brilliance. Our cutter chose a faceted, mixed brilliant design to honor the stone, shaping it into a graceful pear form that shows the parti color shift with each movement, and polishing every facet to an excellent finish. There was no enhancement applied to this sapphire, so what you see is the authentic beauty that began in the soil of Ceylon, and each facet tells a chapter of its journey from rough to refined.

This sapphire is built for everyday life, its durability rooted in the fundamental toughness of corundum, nine on the Mohs scale, which gives it exceptional resistance to scratching and abrasion. The mixed brilliant faceting maximizes light return while preserving the integrity of the stone, and the very slightly included clarity means it looks clean to the eye while retaining the natural markers that confirm its origin. Because it has not been heat treated or otherwise enhanced, its color stability and overall condition are inherently reliable, making it ideal for daily wear in rings, pendants, or earrings. For longevity we recommend secure settings that protect the pointed end of the pear, such as a bezel or V prong, and routine gentle care using warm soapy water and a soft brush. When you choose this sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company you are choosing a gem with a provenance, a careful cutting story, and the practical strength to accompany you every day, a piece that will age gracefully while holding the memory of Ceylon in its heart.
