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

This 1.15 carat oval purplish pink sapphire from Ceylon combines rare natural beauty with market leading quality, offered by The Natural Sapphire Company. The gemstone measures 7.44 by 5.46 by 3.44 mm, it is faceted with a mixed brilliant cut, it is eye clean at standard viewing distance, it shows intense color intensity, and it has an excellent polish. Unlike many commercially available stones that rely on heat treatment or other enhancements to boost color, this sapphire is natural and untreated, which gives it a transparency and depth of hue that treated stones often lack. Compared with lower clarity or heavily included sapphires, this piece offers immediate visual impact and longevity of performance, and relative to color dominant stones from other sources, Ceylon sapphires tend to display a velvety yet lively tone that reads as elegant and wearable in a wide range of settings.

Under different lighting conditions this mixed brilliant cut oval performs with distinction, producing a lively balance of brilliance and subtle color flashes. In bright daylight the stone presents a vivid purplish pink, with the mixed brilliant facets returning strong white brilliance and lively flashes of pink when the gem is tilted. Under warm incandescent lighting the hue leans richer and more romantic, with deeper pink and soft violet overtones becoming more pronounced, creating a candlelit warmth that is flattering against the skin. Under cool LED or fluorescent lighting the sapphire retains its intensity while the mixed cut enhances scintillation, causing crisp flashes of light across the crown. In low light and at twilight the stone reveals its depth, with the intense color providing a velvety presence and the polish catching small pinpoints of reflected light. Because it is eye clean, viewers will see these lighting effects unimpeded by distracting inclusions, and the well executed proportions of the mixed brilliant cut maximize both sparkle and color saturation. For customers seeking a naturally colored, untreated Ceylon sapphire that stands above mass market alternatives in clarity, polish, and optical performance, this 1.15 carat purplish pink oval is a superior choice, and The Natural Sapphire Company is proud to present it as a refined and enduring option for engagement rings, bespoke jewelry, or collection pieces.
