1.50 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This pear shape pink sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company presents a rare combination of vivid color intensity, transparent clarity, and graceful proportions that set it apart from the many pink gems on the market. At 1.50 carats and measuring 9.07 x 5.41 x 3.85 mm, this stone balances presence and wearability in a way that heavier or flatter cuts often fail to achieve. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to maximize fire and brilliance, producing lively flashes that outshine many step cut and shallow cut alternatives. With a clarity grade described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the gem reads as effectively eye clean, so its glowing pink tone is uninterrupted by visible flaws. The excellent polish further enhances light performance and surface finish, making this sapphire feel more refined than many commercial grade pink stones. Heat treating is a well established enhancement that stabilizes and intensifies the color, and this Ceylon provenance brings a classic, velvety pink character that collectors and designers prize. When a client compares this sapphire to other pink gems, such as morganite, tourmaline, or lower grade sapphires, this stone holds a distinct advantage in durability, color saturation, and overall finishing, making it a superior choice for an heirloom piece.

Technically minded customers will appreciate the thoughtful balance of proportions and cutting style that The Natural Sapphire Company offers with this pear shaped gem. The mixed brilliant cut is particularly effective on a pear outline, as it concentrates scintillation near the tip and along the curve, creating a pleasing interplay of light that keeps the color dynamic from every angle. Compared to round brilliant and oval cuts of similar carat weight, a well cut pear can appear larger face up, and the elongated silhouette flatters most settings. The dimensions of 9.07 x 5.41 x 3.85 mm yield a comfortable table to depth ratio that supports both sparkle and depth of hue. Clarity described as very slightly included at eye level means the stone looks clean to the unaided eye, unlike many so called bargain sapphires where inclusions crowd the table and deaden the color. Because this sapphire is heat treated, the color is stable and predictable under different lighting conditions, a practical advantage over untreated stones that sometimes shift from indoor incandescent warmth to cooler daylight. In terms of value, a vivid, transparent Ceylon pink sapphire of this size and cut offers a compelling price for long term enjoyment, and it often represents better value than pink diamonds and other rare pink gems when beauty and wearable durability are taken into account.

Romance and provenance come together in a story that is as vivid as the gem itself. Imagine the soft dawn over the tea gardens of Ceylon, the first light turning the young leaves a blushing pink, and the overlook where two people share a quiet promise. The color of this sapphire evokes that first morning light, a vivid pink that seems to hold the warmth of sunrise within its facets. The pear shape suggests a single tear of joy, a drop of sentiment captured and preserved for generations. Its very slightly included clarity is part of that story, a reminder that true love is not flawless but honest and enduring, that small memories and gentle imperfections only deepen the character of what we cherish. When set into a bespoke ring or pendant by The Natural Sapphire Company, this stone becomes more than a jewel, it becomes a tangible chapter in a personal history, a keepsake that carries the scent of distant hills and the promise of shared mornings.

From a practical perspective this pink sapphire is an ideal candidate for everyday wear and for pieces intended to become family heirlooms. Sapphires score 9 on the Mohs scale of hardness, second only to diamond, and that superior toughness makes them much more resistant to scratches and nicks than softer gems such as morganite or kunzite. The excellent polish ensures the surface mirrors light beautifully, which means the stone will continue to look lively and well cared for with routine cleaning. The pear shape is versatile, lending itself to solitaire rings that elongate the finger, to drop pendants that move with subtle drama, or to three stone settings where a central pink sapphire is flanked by diamonds for contrast and glamour. Compared with many mass market pink stones that are either heavily included or poorly cut, this Ceylon sapphire retains its vivid saturation and transparent clarity, making it an investment in both aesthetics and longevity. Disclosure of heat treatment and origin is part of the transparent service offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, and that openness helps buyers understand the provenance and care that go into sourcing and presenting each gem.

In choosing this 1.50 carat pear shape pink sapphire you are selecting more than color and carat, you are choosing a gem with a pedigree, a promise, and practical merit. The Ceylon origin lends a nuanced pink that sits elegantly between cotton candy lightness and saturated hot pink, a tone that photographs beautifully and also reads as sophisticated in person. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish ensure that the gem performs under all lights, while the very slightly included clarity gives authenticity without compromising brilliance. For clients seeking to commission a ring, a pendant, or a bespoke commission, The Natural Sapphire Company can advise on settings that protect the pointed tip and showcase the table for maximum sparkle. Because vivid pink sapphires of this size and transparent quality are uncommon on the open market, this stone represents a rare opportunity to own something distinctive and enduring. If you value clarity of origin, excellence in cut and finish, and a romantic story to complement the gem, this Ceylon pink sapphire is a superior choice that blends beauty, value, and timeless appeal.
