1.32 Ct. Peach Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This listing describes a single transparent peach sapphire weighing 1.32 carats, oval in shape, with precise dimensions of 7.19 x 5.55 x 4.24 mm, a mixed brilliant cut, and an excellent polish. The gem presents a medium color intensity in a distinct peach tone that balances warm orange and delicate pink overtones, and it is graded as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level. The sapphire originates from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, and has no enhancement, preserving its natural color and clarity attributes. The combination of transparency, a well executed mixed brilliant faceting scheme, and the absence of treatment contributes to a lively play of light and a clean visual presentation that can be appreciated both loose and once set.

Peach sapphire material of this hue and quality is uncommon in the market, and this stone is particularly notable for its color rarity relative to similar options. Many sapphires that exhibit peach tones tend to lean toward paler pastel shades or toward stronger pink or orange dominants, whereas this example maintains a steady medium intensity that reads as true peach under neutral lighting. The color distribution is even, with no apparent color zoning at typical viewing angles, and the warm tone interacts with the mixed brilliant faceting to produce subtle flashes of brilliance and fire. Because this sapphire is natural and unheated, the presence of its peach hue without treatment adds an additional layer of rarity, as comparable color and clarity combinations are more frequently encountered in small sizes or in material that has undergone enhancement.

Size rarity is a complementary quality for this stone, as peach sapphires meeting this combination of weight, dimensions, and clarity are infrequently available. At 1.32 carats the oval profile provides a substantial face up presence while retaining elegant proportions for a variety of jewelry designs. The measurements yield a table and depth relationship that maximizes light return within the mixed brilliant scheme, allowing the gem to appear lively and well balanced from the table down through the pavilion. For those comparing options, many natural peach sapphires on the market are below one carat or present with either stronger saturation or more noticeable inclusions. This sapphire’s very very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level ensures that inclusions are minimal and do not detract from the overall visual appeal, making it suitable as a centerpiece in a refined engagement setting or as a distinct accent in bespoke jewelry.

The cutting and finishing of this sapphire have been executed to emphasize both color and brilliance, with precise facet junctions and an excellent polish that enhance the stone’s optical performance. The mixed brilliant cut promotes scintillation while the oval outline offers versatility in mounting and wear, and the transparent character of the material allows for clear light passage and lively return. Provenance from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, and the confirmed absence of enhancement are important considerations for collectors and designers who prioritize natural origin and unmodified color. The Natural Sapphire Company provides this detailed description to assist in evaluation and selection, and independent gemological reports are available where required to confirm the stated attributes. This sapphire is distinguished by the combined rarity of its balanced peach color and its size, offering a natural, unheated example that stands apart from more common color and weight combinations.
