1.73 Ct. Pinkish Purple Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Sapphire Company we are proud to present a truly rare and refined treasure, one beautiful transparent 1.73 carat cushion shape pinkish purple sapphire, a gem that combines classical charm with modern brilliance. This sapphire measures 6.96 by 6.26 by 4.34 millimeters, and it has been masterfully fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut to give exquisite sparkle and depth. Its clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means it presents exceptional visual purity while retaining the natural character that serious collectors and discerning buyers prize. The color is intense, a lively pinkish purple that shifts with light and movement, and the polish is excellent, creating mirror like facets that draw the eye. Importantly, this sapphire has no enhancement, an increasingly rare attribute that confirms its natural origin and undisturbed beauty, and its provenance is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a celebrated source known for producing some of the finest sapphires in the world.

This gemstone is not merely an object of beauty, it is a statement piece that will elevate any design and create a lasting impression, which is why we describe it as the perfect striking gift for someone special. Imagine presenting this cushion shape pinkish purple sapphire in a bespoke setting, the intense color set against warm metal to emphasize its purple notes, or framed in cool white metal to enhance its pink vibrancy, each option revealing a different facet of its personality. The mixed brilliant cut allows for lively scintillation across the crown, while the cushion outline offers a timeless silhouette that flatters every hand and every heart. For the recipient who treasures authenticity and rarity, this sapphire stands apart because it is unenhanced, its natural hue and saturation untouched by heat or other treatments, a purity that will resonate with anyone who values genuine, lasting beauty. Gifts that are both beautiful and rare become heirlooms, and this stone is destined to be worn and treasured for generations, a tangible reminder of a moment of recognition, celebration, or devotion.

Owning this sapphire means owning something from a very small group of people who can claim such a gem, a quietly exclusive experience that The Natural Sapphire Company curates with attentive service and expertise. We offer bespoke design consultations to help you transform the loose gem into an unforgettable piece of jewelry, whether you envision a ring that catches the eye at every glance, a pendant that rests close to the heart, or a custom pair of earrings that frame the face with flattering color and light. Because this sapphire is offered in its natural, unenhanced state, we suggest settings that protect and showcase its intense color and exceptional polish, and we are happy to advise on metal choices, prong styles, and mounting techniques that will preserve its integrity for daily wear or special occasion use. Limited by nature and by the scarcity of unenhanced Ceylon stones of this quality and size, this sapphire will not be readily replaced, and that scarcity is what creates its value as a gift that is both intimate and exclusive. If you are seeking a present that surpasses the ordinary and marks a significant milestone with unmistakable elegance, this 1.73 carat pinkish purple cushion sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company will make a striking and unforgettable choice.
