1.11 Ct. Padparadscha Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This padparadscha sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is a transparent, oval shape gem weighing 1.11 carats, with precise dimensions of 7.19 x 4.64 x 3.95 mm, a mixed brilliant cut, and an excellent polish. The stone exhibits a medium color intensity that balances delicate pink and warm orange tones characteristic of true padparadscha material, with a clarity grading of very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level. Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, this sapphire has no enhancement, presenting a natural color and structure that reflect its origin. The symmetry of the oval outline and the mixed brilliant faceting create clean lines and consistent light return, and the stone is free from surface reaching treatments, preserving its original luster and structural integrity.

The exceptional cut and brilliance of this sapphire make it a compelling centerpiece in any collection. The mixed brilliant arrangement combines a faceted crown that disperses fire with a pavilion geometry that maximizes scintillation, producing an even interplay of sparkle across the table and facets. At 1.11 carats and with the given proportions, the gem sits well in classic and contemporary settings, retaining a strong visual presence on a ring, pendant, or bespoke piece without overwhelming complementary elements. The eye level clarity rating and transparent body mean the gem presents cleanly to the viewer, while the excellent polish enhances surface reflections and overall brilliance. For collectors and designers seeking an unenhanced Ceylon padparadscha with refined cutting and reliable optical performance, this gem offers an elegant balance of natural color, clarity, and craftsmanship, and it stands ready to serve as a distinguished focal point in high quality jewelry.
