2.61 Ct. Padparadscha Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing a remarkable treasure from The Natural Sapphire Company, a mesmerizing 2.61 carat padparadscha sapphire that captivates with its enchanting pinkish orange hue. Certified by C.Dunaigre, this sapphire epitomizes the exquisite quality of gemstones sourced from the cherished lands of Ceylon, also known as Sri Lanka, renowned for producing some of the world's most coveted sapphires. Displaying dimensions of 7.44 x 7.42 x 5.22 mm, this cushion-shaped gem demonstrates impressive craftsmanship akin to that found in gemstones hailing from illustrious locations such as Madagascar and Tanzania. These regions produce padparadscha sapphires that vary in tone, yet few can match the vibrant, sunlit allure of this particular specimen, which beautifully harmonizes a balanced blend of pink and orange reminiscent of a serene tropical sunset.

The mixed brilliant cut of this padparadscha sapphire ensures ample light dispersion, creating a radiant dance of color and lively reflections that captivate the eye from every angle. Such brilliance is comparable to the masterful work often seen in renowned cutting houses located in Idar-Oberstein, Germany. The cutting skill further amplifies the gem's medium intense color intensity, each facet meticulously crafted to accentuate its fiery hues. When assessing clarity, this gemstone holds a very very slightly included grade, a testament to its near-flawless appearance as evaluated at eye level, confirming its stature as a truly remarkable gemstone.

Enhancements through heat treatment have fine-tuned the color balance, bringing out the gem's natural beauty while maintaining its authenticity. The exceptional polish applied to this sapphire reveals a surface perfection that mirrors the standards expected in high-grade sapphires from Burma (Myanmar), a location revered for its rich history in fine sapphire production. Collectors and aficionados will appreciate this gem's perfect embodiment of precision and rarity, qualities highly sought after by discerning buyers worldwide. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we stand behind this exquisite sapphire, celebrating its provenance and magnificent attributes that exemplify our commitment to providing only the finest caliber gemstones to our esteemed clientele.
