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

The transparent 1.20 carat cushion-shaped purplish pink sapphire, with dimensions measuring 6.73 x 5.66 x 3.69 mm, stands as a testament to the masterful art of gem cutting. Deriving from the renowned origins of Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region historically celebrated for producing some of the world’s most exceptional sapphires, this gemstone exemplifies an illustrious heritage paired with contemporary artifice. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we ensure that each gemstone is a tangible manifestation of artisanal expertise and precise engineering, reflecting the allure and characteristics inherent to its geological essence.

Central to the unique allure of this sapphire is its mixed brilliant cut, a sophisticated combination that distinctively enhances both brilliance and scintillation. The cutter’s artistry, evident in each facet, elevates the inherent properties of light reflection intrinsic to the sapphire. By employing precise angles, each facet amplifies the passage of light through the gemstone. This meticulous arrangement not only maximizes the sapphire's capacity to refract light but also bestows upon it a lively radiance that captivates and holds the beholder’s gaze. The interplay of light across the mixed brilliant cut renders an appearance that is mesmerizing, with every turn yielding flashes of vibrant hues nestled within its purplish pink splendor.

The sapphire's clarity, categorized as very slightly included and evaluated at eye level, ensures that inclusions do not detract from the aesthetic appeal, but rather, offer a unique fingerprint that distinguishes it as a natural creation of Earth's artistry. This clarity grade indicates that under typical viewing conditions, the gemstone maintains a clarity that is intrinsically high, signifying minimal inclusions that are only perceptible under magnification. Consequently, the sapphire maintains a pristine visage characterized by uniform transparency, allowing light to traverse unimpeded, contributing to a brilliance and color saturation that knowledgeable collectors and aficionados will deem exceptional.

Contributing significantly to its visual appeal is the medium intense color intensity, which encapsulates the sapphire's ability to display a rich palette. This vigorous color saturation manifests as a captivating blend of purplish pink tones that bespeak both elegance and sophistication. Such a color grade ensures that the hue remains vivid without displaying any overtones that might diminish its aesthetic quality. The color is distributed evenly throughout the gem, unveiling an unbroken hue that refines its allure and enhances its vibrancy in various lighting conditions.

Finally, an exceptional polish completes the cut of this gemstone, ensuring that every facet gleams with mirror-like finish. This polish, the result of an expert hand ensuring meticulous refinement, is pivotal in reflecting light back to the observer. At The Natural Sapphire Company, our commitment to detailing such as this stands at the forefront of our promise to deliver gemstones of superior quality. This premium polish not only heightens the gemstone's reflective properties but also solidifies its standing as a symbol of luxury and distinction. For connoisseurs who discern the intricacies of gemstone refinement and craftsmanship, this sapphire is an exemplar of both nature's beauty and human skill combined.
