2.87 Ct. Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine giving a stone that carries the gentle mystery of a forest clearing at dusk, a jewel that seems to hold a private sky of green and blue within its facets. This transparent 2.87 carat oval green sapphire, measuring 9.94 x 7.25 x 4.71 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style and finished with an excellent polish, will do just that. With a clarity graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and a medium intense color intensity, it sparkles with a refined and wearable depth that invites touch and reflection. Origin Ceylon Sri Lanka, heat treated, this gem from The Natural Sapphire Company combines island provenance and classic craftsmanship into a piece that feels both rare and warmly familiar, a keepsake that creates memory, joy, and a quiet promise.

When you place this Ceylon green sapphire next to sapphires from Australia, you will notice a different personality, Australian green sapphires often favor deeper, bluer teal tones and a stronger, more saturated presence, while this Sri Lankan stone leans to a softer, more luminous green with gentle blue undertones and a medium intense tone that glows from within. Compared to Montana green sapphires from the American West, known for lighter grassy and pastel greens, this gem offers more depth and a richer visual weight, without losing its clarity and life. When set beside stones from Madagascar, which can be vivid and electric in color, the Ceylon green reads as elegantly understated and sophisticated, a versatile hue that shifts beautifully in candlelight or sunlight. Even compared to classic Ceylon blues and Kashmir blues from famous locales, the tone here is uniquely its own, less cornflower blue and more a living green, reminiscent of leaf lit from behind. The comparison of hue and tone to these celebrated origins highlights how this sapphire gives you the best of many worlds, the vibrancy of exotic mines and the refined clarity that only Sri Lankan sapphires so often deliver. Choose this gem from The Natural Sapphire Company to celebrate a milestone, to gift a love, or to mark a new chapter, and watch how its color becomes part of your story, reflecting joy and enduring affection.
