0.97 Ct. Pinkish Purple Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Sapphire Company, we take pride in presenting gems that encapsulate the epitome of natural splendor and superior craftsmanship. Among our curated collection, this exquisite 0.97 carat pear-shaped pinkish purple sapphire stands out with its remarkable interplay of color and light. Exhibiting dimensions of 7.95 x 5.26 x 3.01 mm, this sapphire is expertly fashioned to balance elegance with the precision engineering hallmark of a masterful design. Through the geometric intricacies of its faceting, this gem offers a display of scintillation that transforms any ordinary reflection into an extraordinary spectacle.

The allure of this sapphire is largely attributed to its masterful mixed brilliant cut. By combining elements from both step and brilliant cuts, our artisans exploit maximum light play, ensuring the facets work harmoniously to disperse light beautifully throughout the stone. The multiple planes of precision-cut facets act as miniature mirrors, each catching light at varying angles. This specific faceting style elevates the visual performance of the stone, offering unparalleled intensity in visual brilliance that elevates the natural beauty of its pinkish purple hue.

Our sapphire showcases an intense color intensity, a crucial attribute that underscores its captivating charm. The vivid pinkish purple hue is not merely superficial but deeply ingrained within the stone’s very structure. This saturation ensures consistency of color across the gemstone, preventing the dulling of its dynamic personality under different lighting conditions. Indeed, it is this deep coloring that contributes significantly to the overall rarity and desirability of the sapphire, positioning it as a covetable choice for connoisseurs and collectors alike.

Clarity and polish further define the quality of this gemstone. Graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the sapphire maintains a standard of transparency that allows for unfettered admiration of its chromatic play and inner fire. This clarity is complemented by an excellent polish, which is the result of meticulous craftsmanship and a commitment to excellence that is synonymous with The Natural Sapphire Company. The surface of the sapphire is a seamless expanse, reflecting light with a dazzling crispness that amplifies its pear shape and enhances the stone's overall aesthetic.

Sourced from the legendary mines of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this sapphire carries with it not only the prestige of its geographical origins but also a long history of esteemed gemstone craftsmanship. Sri Lanka has been known through history to produce some of the world’s most revered sapphires, characterized by their distinctive color and brilliance. By selecting a sapphire from this revered locale, The Natural Sapphire Company guarantees not just a superior product, but one that represents a tradition of excellence. This small piece of geological art serves not just as a testament to the earth's natural beauty but also to the unparalleled skill and craftsmanship that have perpetuated the renown of Ceylonese gemstones throughout the ages.
