1.11 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A treasure of measured beauty arrives with clear and precise detail, a transparent pink sapphire weighing 1.11 carat, cut in a graceful oval shape with dimensions 5.62 x 4.79 x 5.52 mm, finished in a mixed brilliant cut that invites light to play across every facet. This gem carries a clarity grade described as slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and yet those modest inclusions enhance rather than diminish, lending a whisper of character to its honest transparency. The color intensity is intense, a pink that remembers the blush of dawn and the warm hush of a garden at sunset, and its polish is excellent, so each curve and facet mirror the world with a clear and luminous voice. Unenhanced and true to its origin, this sapphire comes from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a land famed for producing stones that are at once noble and naturally alive, and it arrives to you as nature intended, with no enhancement, pure and ready to be set in metal and memory.

Imagine this pink sapphire placed within a ring, a pendant, or a pair of earrings, a single note of color that commands attention without shouting, a focal point that turns every glance into a secret shared. The mixed brilliant cut amplifies the stone s natural fire, scattering light in tiny stars that move as you move, while the oval silhouette offers both elegance and presence, elongating the finger and framing the heart. Intense color intensity means this gem does not fade into the background, it sings from the center of any composition, whether cradled in white gold for a cool contrast, warmed by rose gold to echo its rosy heart, or set in yellow gold to create a vintage portrait of light and shadow. The excellent polish ensures a satin smoothness at the surface, a kiss of craftsmanship that lets each facet exhale brilliance. Even though this sapphire is slightly included, those delicate internal signatures are like the handwriting of the earth, a reminder that the most beloved things bear the gentle marks of their making.

To wear this stone is to carry a story that begins in the storied soils of Ceylon and continues in the quiet gestures of daily life. The intense pink is not a single flat tone, but a chorus of hues, from the tender blush of new petals to the vibrant flush of peonies at their fullest bloom, shifting as light moves across its mixed brilliant facets. There is romance in its transparency, a clarity that reveals, without hiding, the living pulse within. Slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level means the gem retains a pleasing openness, and under close contemplation one might find subtle lines and tiny clouds that act like secret constellations, mapping the journey from deep inside the earth to the palm of your hand. The knowledge that this sapphire has no enhancement reinforces an honest intimacy, a truth that makes the stone feel more like a found poem than a polished commodity, more like an heirloom waiting to begin its life alongside you.
