1.76 Ct. Reddish Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite reddish pink sapphire offers an enchanting glimpse into the world of rare gemstones where its journey from the mines of Ceylon to the polished gemstone market is as compelling as its physical splendor. The sapphire originates from Ceylon, known today as Sri Lanka, a region famed for producing gemstones of remarkable quality. With dimensions measuring 8.05 x 5.83 x 3.97 mm and weighing 1.76 carats, this oval-shaped gem is celebrated for the vibrancy of its reddish pink hue, a color that captivates gem enthusiasts and collectors alike.

The sapphire possesses an impressive clarity grade, described as very slightly included which indicates that inclusions are hardly visible to the naked eye. This level of clarity is particularly significant for coloured gemstones and enhances the overall allure of the sapphire. The mixed brilliant cut ensures that light is reflected through the stone in an optimal manner, resulting in an exquisite display of brilliance. Complementing its desirable color and cut is a polish of excellent grade, testament to the expert craftsmanship at each stage of the gemstone’s handling.

Intense color intensity is a hallmark of this gemstone, identifying it as a captivating specimen that stands apart from both common gemstones and artificially enhanced counterparts. The reddish pink shade is superbly intense, speaking to the stone’s natural pedigree and hinting at its metamorphic origin deep within the Earth’s crust millions of years ago. Coloured sapphires from Ceylon often emerge from the deposits of alluvial placer deposits, washed down from highland metamorphic centers and formed from mineral-rich corundum, which is the mineral species to which sapphires belong.
