3.67 Ct. Bi Color Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a small dawn in the palm of your hand, a gem that carries the first hush of morning and the soft clarity of late summer light, a living promise of new beginnings. This is a transparent bluish yellow bicolor sapphire, C.Dunaigre certified, weighing 3.67 carats, round in shape, cut into a mixed brilliant form that scatters light like secrets shared between lovers. At 8.94 by 8.85 by 6.55 millimeters it sits with a confident presence, neither shy nor loud, perfect for a ring that wants to be noticed for its quiet beauty. Its clarity is eye clean when viewed at eye level, a purity that allows the stone to breathe and reveal the gentle shift between cool blue and warm yellow, a light color intensity that whispers rather than shouts, an excellent polish that smooths the transitions into silken reflections. Unenhanced and natural in every way, and born of Ceylon Sri Lanka, this sapphire is a true heirloom in waiting, a story that began in ancient soils and is ready to continue in your hands with the trusted care of The Natural Sapphire Company.

Envision this gem set as the heart of an engagement ring, cradled in a halo of small, icy white diamonds that mimic the way morning mist frames the first light. The diamonds will lend a sparkling punctuation to the sapphire, emphasizing the coolness of the bluish tones while lifting the yellow into sunshine, creating a chiaroscuro of affection around the center stone. For warmer romance, imagine slender baguette or tapered fancy yellow sapphires flanking the center, their lemon glass echoing the sapphire golden notes and deepening the warmth when caught together. For contrast and depth, a trio design with this bicolor sapphire centered between two deep velvety blue sapphires will turn every glance into a conversation about balance, the middle stone singing with ambivalence between sky and sun, while its companions anchor the composition in midnight music. A setting in rose gold will bring out the citron glow like a blush, while platinum or white gold will sharpen the blue whispers into crystalline clarity. For a more bohemian heart, pair the sapphire with soft green chrysoberyl or minty aquamarine side stones and a thin, textured band, letting the palette read like a watercolor memory.

In a custom pendant, this sapphire will dangle like a private sunrise close to the throat, suspended by a delicate chain in platinum for a cooler expression, or in rose gold to coax out the gem golden notes and warm every breath. Surround it with tiny champagne diamonds for an antique glamour that feels both vintage and utterly modern, or set it as a solitaire with a polished bezel for a minimalist poem meant to be worn every day. For earrings, imagine matched pear or marquise accent stones set to mirror the sapphire color change, the blue catching the eye when you turn, the yellow warming your face when you laugh. Consider intricate milgrain or filigree work for a ring that reads as a family treasure, small full cut diamonds along the shoulders to add a soft halo of light without overpowering the bicolor charm. In bespoke pieces The Natural Sapphire Company can artfully place accent stones so that the yellow areas are hugged by warm toned gems, and the bluish sections are contrasted by cooler gems, turning the natural zoning into a deliberate, romantic design choice rather than a quirk. Each combination will celebrate the stone origin, the unenhanced purity, and the mixed brilliant cut that makes every facet an invitation to look closer and fall deeper.
