0.38 Ct. Reddish Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Millions of years ago, deep within the earth's crust of what is now known as Ceylon or Sri Lanka, a remarkable process began, leading to the formation of the exquisite gemstone we present today. Nature's sheer power, in the form of intense heat and pressure, combined with a unique geological cocktail perfectly suited for creating sapphires, set the stage for this natural alchemy. Over countless millennia, fractional crystallization occurred within these ancient rocks, isolating elements such as aluminum and oxygen. Trace elements like chromium, crucial in granting this gemstone its rare reddish pink hue, further nuanced the stone's allure. This subtle yet vivid color intensity is a hallmark of only the finest sapphires, defining characteristics that distinguish this particular 0.38 carat gem.

Meticulous human touch undertook the next stage of this sapphire’s journey, honoring the millions of years required for its natural formation by transforming it into an epitome of precision craftsmanship. This round-shaped masterpiece showcases a mixed brilliant cut, skillfully executed to maximize its inherent light performance and capture every ray into a dazzling display. Faceting at dimensions of 4.05 x 4.10 x 2.89 mm, the cut is specifically designed to enhance the stone's visual depth, allowing enthusiasts to peer into its slightly included clarity grade. These inclusions are small and do not detract from its overall eye-level beauty, rather they serve as hallmarks of its natural origin. Such features are coveted by knowledgeable buyers who appreciate sapphires that bear unique internal histories.

The sapphire's excellent polish furthers its magnificence, each detail honed with care to deliver a smooth and lustrous surface finish.
