0.85 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This lovely transparent 0.85 carat round pink sapphire arrives ready to shine, it measures 5.33 x 5.35 x 3.79 mm, it is cut in a mixed brilliant style to maximize both face up color and light return, it carries a clarity grade of slightly included as evaluated at eye level, it shows vivid color intensity, and it has an excellent polish. Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka and heat treated to enhance hue and stability, this stone offers a rare balance of saturated pink tone and clean presence that you will notice immediately when set in a ring or pendant. At The Natural Sapphire Company we present it as a refined alternative to pale or heavily included pink sapphires on the market, and as a more authentic, character rich choice than mass produced lab grown stones that lack the natural origin story and individual fingerprint of a mined gem.

The journey of this sapphire begins in Sri Lanka, where skilled miners recover small pockets of gem quality material from traditional alluvial deposits, stones that have been turned and tumbled by nature for millennia. From the mine the rough is sorted by experienced hands, the best material selected for cutting, then preformed to follow the gem grain before a precise mixed brilliant cut is applied to retain depth of color and create lively scintillation. Heat treatment is used thoughtfully to stabilize and intensify the pink hue, a standard, durable enhancement that is accepted by attentive buyers and which preserves the natural crystal structure far better than surface filling or dyeing practices common in lower quality market material. After cutting the stone receives a meticulous polish and an eye level inspection that confirms its slightly included clarity grade and vivid color intensity, then it enters our inventory with full provenance and quality notes.

When you compare this 0.85 carat Ceylon pink sapphire to alternatives you will find its transparency, lively saturation, and expert mixed brilliant cut place it above typical commercial stones that either sacrifice color for size, or use heavy filling to mask inclusions. It is an ideal size and shape for an elegant engagement ring, a distinctive pendant, or a bespoke custom piece where the stone can be the focal point. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind the gem with honest disclosure and expert guidance, and we welcome you to discuss mounting options, view detailed images, or request a certificate to confirm its origin and treatment.
