Solitaire Pink Sapphire Necklace 1.47 Ct., 18K White Gold

This necklace is an elegant study in color and proportion, set entirely in 14K white gold and centered on a transparent 1.47 carat cushion shape pink sapphire, measuring 6.59 by 5.81 by 3.81 millimeters, with a mixed brilliant cut. The stone exhibits a clarity grade of very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means that to the unaided eye the gem reads as essentially clean, with only faint internal features under magnification that do not disturb the overall appearance. The color shows a medium intense saturation, a hue that reads as vivid and lively without tipping into overly dark tones, and the finish is an excellent polish that gives the pavilion and crown a mirror like sheen. Crucially, this sapphire is unenhanced, a natural gem from Ceylon Sri Lanka, and its untreated origin is significant to informed buyers because it preserves the natural crystal structure and color chemistry that are often altered in heat treated stones. The mixed brilliant cut has been selected to maximize return of light and to balance flash with depth, producing scintillation that flatters the neckline while retaining the classic rounded corners and table proportions that define a well executed cushion shape.

When compared to other popular pendant choices, this piece offers a combination of attributes that place it above standard market alternatives. Compared with common pink gemstones such as morganite or pink tourmaline, a natural Ceylon sapphire of this weight and intensity is rarer and more durable, sapphire being second only to diamond on the Mohs hardness scale and holding color and polish far better in daily wear. Against heat treated sapphires and laboratory created stones, the unenhanced provenance of this gem commands premium value because untreated stones are less common and they carry intrinsic geological interest for collectors and connoisseurs. Versus a solitaire diamond pendant the difference is one of character rather than brilliance, the pink sapphire offers a color presence that a white diamond cannot, and for buyers seeking individuality a gem with medium intense pink saturation offers a refined statement without relying on accent stones. The clarity and polish of this sapphire also set it apart from many commercial sapphires that show more obvious inclusions or softer facet junctions. Finally the 14K white gold mount is a versatile choice, providing secure support and a cool reflective backdrop that enhances the pink tones without overpowering them, and its construction allows light to enter the pavilion and crown freely, which is a subtle but important advantage over bulkier closed back settings.

For the educated buyer who values both gemological integrity and wearable design, this necklace represents an exceptional proposition from The Natural Sapphire Company. The combination of a one point four seven carat cushion shape sapphire from Ceylon, very very slightly included clarity at eye level, medium intense natural color and excellent polish, all set in 14K white gold, creates a piece that balances rarity, durability and everyday elegance. Provenance matters in colored gemstones, and Ceylon sapphires are historically prized for their clarity and vivid but refined colors, making this stone an appealing choice for collectors and for those seeking a meaningful gift. The mixed brilliant cushion cut gives more lively scintillation than many step cut alternatives, while the size and proportions offer a substantial face up presence without appearing bulky. Care for this piece is straightforward, avoid strong chemicals and high heat, store separately to prevent abrasion, and have the setting inspected periodically, steps that will preserve the stone and the white gold mount for generations.
