1.43 Ct. Peach Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This transparent pear shape peach sapphire weighs 1.43 carats, with exact dimensions of 8.69 x 6.25 x 3.50 mm, a length to width ratio of approximately 1.39, and a mixed brilliant cut that combines a faceted brilliant crown with a precision pavilion schema to maximize light return. The cutting strategy emphasizes well proportioned facets and tight symmetry, producing balanced broad flashes and crisp pinpoint scintillation across the pear outline. Clarity is graded very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, indicating the stone appears visually clean to the naked eye while fine inclusions remain only under magnification, and the polish is excellent yielding mirror like facet planes. Color intensity is light, presenting a delicate peach tone that sits between pink and orange and responds to ambient light with warm, skin complementing saturation. The sapphire is natural with no enhancement, originating from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, and its untouched state preserves the original crystal chemistry and pleochroic behavior that collectors and connoisseurs value, The Natural Sapphire Company certifying provenance and untreated status.

In side by side comparison with more common gemstones, this peach sapphire offers a distinct light performance rooted in corundum chemistry, a refractive index near 1.76, and strong surface luster, producing a focused brightness that differs from the high dispersion fire of diamond and the pastel diffusion of morganite. Diamonds exhibit superior dispersion and white brilliance, however diamonds rely on extremely fine facet junctions to achieve scintillation, whereas this mixed brilliant peach sapphire yields broader, warmer flashes and sustained internal glow, making it particularly attractive in warm lighting and skin tone contexts. Compared with topaz and quartz varieties, which can appear glassy and show lower refractive return, this sapphire maintains higher optical density and a more lively return per carat, while its excellent polish and precision pavilion angles enhance contrast and sparkle beyond many commercial gems. The mixed brilliant faceting blends the advantages of both step and brilliant philosophies, creating both contrast and sparkle, and when paired with the untreated Ceylon origin and VVS level clarity, the result is a rare combination of refined brilliance, subtle color, and collector grade integrity, making this piece a tailored choice for discerning buyers through The Natural Sapphire Company.
