1.24 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This pear shaped bluish green sapphire weighs 1.24 carats, and measures 7.59 by 5.60 by 4.19 millimeters, offering an elegant footprint that is immediately appealing for bespoke jewelry. The gem is cut in a mixed brilliant style, combining the scintillating faceting of a brilliant crown with precise pavilion faceting to maximize light return and color saturation. Clarity is graded very very slightly included, as evaluated at eye level, which for practical purposes means the stone appears clean to the naked eye, with only minute internal features evident under magnification. Color intensity is described as intense, and the polish is excellent, giving the table and facets crisp reflections and lively brilliance. This sapphire is unenhanced, with no heat or other treatments reported, and it is sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region renowned for producing lively, evenly colored sapphires with fine clarity.

To an educated buyer, each of these technical points carries real significance. The very very slightly included clarity grade confirms that the stone retains superior transparency and visual purity without relying on treatments to mask imperfections. The mixed brilliant cut is chosen to balance fire and color, allowing facets on the crown to throw scintillation while the pavilion geometry deepens and disperses the bluish green hue. Excellent polish means facet junctions are sharp and smooth, which improves light performance and reduces the risk of micro abrasions during setting. The intense color intensity indicates strong saturation, which is particularly desirable in a bluish green sapphire because it preserves vividness without tipping into darkness. The fact that the stone has no enhancement increases rarity and long term value, since consumers consistently place a premium on natural, unheated Ceylon sapphires due to their geological provenance and stable optical properties.

This particular size and pear outline make the gemstone exceptionally well suited for custom jewelry projects, and it offers great versatility for designers and clients who want an elegant yet distinctive centerpiece. The proportion of approximately 1.36 to 1 delivers a classic pear silhouette that flatters the finger or neckline, elongating and refining the appearance in ring and pendant applications. With dimensions in the seven by five millimeter range and a weight of 1.24 carats, the stone is an ideal candidate for solitaire engagement rings, halo settings that amplify presence and brilliance, three stone layouts, or as a focal drop in a pendant. In earrings, a matched pair in this size would yield graceful movement and balanced proportion. For settings, prong work that secures the tip of the pear is recommended to protect the vulnerable point, and a custom bezel can provide additional protection while offering a sleek contemporary look. Metal choice influences color perception, with warmer metals such as yellow or rose gold enhancing the green notes, while white gold or platinum emphasizes the cooler bluish tones.
