0.73 Ct. Purplish Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The Natural Sapphire Company is proud to present an exquisite example of fine gemstone craftsmanship in the form of a stunning 0.73 carat pear-shaped sapphire. Displaying a captivating purplish pink hue, this sapphire is an exemplar of the exceptional quality for which Ceylon sapphires are renowned. The dimensions of this piece, measuring 7.61 x 4.34 x 3.00 mm, provide the perfect balance between size and brilliance, making it an ideal choice for discerning collectors and jewelry connoisseurs who seek beauty entwined with rarity.

The alluring purplish pink tint of this sapphire sets it apart from those of other prominent gemstone locales. Unlike the sapphires of Madagascar, which often exhibit a cooler, more muted lavender tone, this Ceylon jewel boasts a warm, vibrant pink reminiscent of the early dawn skies. This distinct hue is not only a testament to the sapphire's geographical origin but also to the unique environmental conditions that influence its color formation. Intent on highlighting the stone's natural beauty, The Natural Sapphire Company has finalized its cut with a mixed brilliant style. This approach maximizes the brilliance and scintillation of the gemstone, contrasting with the step cuts traditionally employed in Burmese sapphires that tend to emphasize depth of color at the expense of light performance.

Examining the sapphire on a more granular level reveals further aspects of its appeal. The clarity of the gemstone falls within the category of very slightly included, a quality not often seen in sapphires from other regions such as Australia, where heavier inclusions are common. Evaluated at eye level, the inclusions in our Ceylon sapphire are virtually invisible, preserving its seamless appearance and enhancing its overall allure. Paired with a medium color intensity, the purplish pink sapphire presents a rich and saturated appearance without sacrificing transparency or brightness, a balance that speaks to the exceptional natural conditions in Ceylon and the careful craftsmanship employed by our artisans.

Moreover, an excellent polish has been applied to this sapphire, its surface reflecting light with immaculate precision and smoothness. Reflective of The Natural Sapphire Company's dedication to craftsmanship, the polishing stage has been meticulously managed to ensure that it complements the fine facets of the mixed brilliant cut, each facet angle precisely calculated to optimize internal reflections and harness the gemstone's innate luminosity. Clients seeking uniqueness will also find solace in the rarity of this medium-intensity color grade, rarely found elsewhere even amid Ceylon's well-known sapphire offerings. Thus, this purplish pink sapphire is not merely a gemstone but a testament to the enduring artistry and fine attention to detail for which The Natural Sapphire Company is celebrated, promising prospective owners a masterpiece adding both rarity and elegance to any collection.
