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

This 2.05 carat transparent cushion shape bi color parti sapphire, measuring 6.87 by 6.39 by 5.61 mm, has been expertly faceted with a mixed brilliant cutting style and an excellent polish to maximize its optical performance. The mixed brilliant cut combines a brilliant style crown with a more faceted pavilion strategy, creating a balance between scintillation and depth of color. The crown facets disperse light into vivid flashes, while the pavilion facets and strategic facet angles return light through the table to enhance brilliance and fire. In a parti sapphire where two distinct color zones coexist, this cutting approach is particularly effective, because the facet geometry directs light to reveal and separate the blue and golden green tones depending on viewing angle and light source, producing lively color contrast and attractive color zoning from both the table and side views. The excellent polish minimizes surface scattering and ensures crisp facet junctions, so light is reflected cleanly and the stone reads as transparent and lively rather than muted.

From a gemological perspective this sapphire is evaluated as slightly included at eye level, remaining transparent and visually clean to most buyers, and presenting intense color intensity that commands attention. It originates from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a historically significant source known for producing sapphires with clear tone and complex parti coloration, and it has been heat treated, a standard and accepted enhancement that stabilizes and intensifies natural hues without compromising the gem structure. The combination of a desirable origin, a marketable 2.05 carat weight, and the cushion shape makes this gem both wearable and collectible. For the informed buyer The Natural Sapphire Company offers transparent grading details, so you can weigh the slightly included clarity against the superior polish and the engineered facet set that optimizes light return. Collectors and designers will value the stone for its optical dynamics, its provenance, and its versatility in fine jewelry, because the mixed brilliant cut not only maximizes brilliance but also showcases the parti character in a way that is educationally interesting and aesthetically satisfying.
