In the heart of a distant land, where time itself seems to linger and fuse with the essence of the earth, lies the birthplace of our exquisite pinkish-purple sapphire — Ceylon, also known as Sri Lanka. This radiant gemstone, weighing 1.37 carats, has journeyed from the ancient soils of this remarkable region. Ceylon, a land steeped in history, has been celebrated for centuries as one of the world's finest sources of sapphires. A treasure coveted since time immemorial, the sapphire from this region carries with it not only breathtaking beauty but also a lineage that stretches far beyond the conceivable horizon. It is a gem that once belonged to civilizations past, held by rulers who marveled at its brilliance and used it to symbolize majesty, wisdom, and divine favor.
Renowned for producing gemstones of extraordinary allure and unrivaled quality, Ceylon's gems were sought after by kings and queens throughout history. This particular sapphire boasts a transformative journey from rough natural beauty to the astonishingly crafted piece before you. Its cushion shape, defined by dimensions of 6.64 x 6.07 x 4.39 mm, is a testament to our artisans' dedication and mastery, producers of a mixed brilliant cut that offers a symphony of sparkle and light. Every facet has been polished to perfection as our skilled hands have caressed it with immense care and an eye for precision. The clarity of this sapphire is of a very slightly included grade, a mark that speaks of nature's touch and the authenticity that comes binded with a masterpiece cradled in the embrace of time itself.
The sapphire's intense color intensity is rapturous, captivating the eye and ensnaring the heart with its deep hues that echo the warmth and vivacity of the Sri Lankan sunrise amongst the whispering winds of sanctity and serenity. This pinkish-purple hue is more than just a color — it is reminiscent of the floral dances and the twilight meldings upon the island's horizons. Its presence on royal circlets and in palatial chambers across centuries has endowed it with an unsurpassed allure, one which whispers secrets of a bygone era and promises timeless elegance. Through meticulous polishing, its every surface gleams with an excellent polish, narrating a story that began many millennia ago.
