2.03 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the moment this sapphire left the alluvial gravels of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, it began a quiet journey that brings nature and craftsmanship together in a rare encounter. Rough stones from this fabled island are prized for their delicate palette, and finding a transparent pink sapphire that exceeds two carats is a moment of true discovery. This gem, weighing 2.03 carats, has been shaped into an asscher octagon shape with precision and care, its faceted structure sculpted to emphasize clarity and symmetry. The asscher cut, with its broad step facets, invites the eye into a pavilion of soft pink flashes, creating a layered depth that belies its light color intensity. At 6.44 by 6.41 by 5.05 millimeters, this sapphire is unusually generous for its tone, a size that allows the color to breathe while maintaining the refined elegance that collectors and connoisseurs seek.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we value transparency in both origin and treatment, and this stone is heat treated to reveal its most expressive hue, accompanied by an excellent polish that enhances sparkle without obscuring its natural character. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is eye clean, allowing the pure pink to present itself without distraction. What makes this piece particularly rare is the combination of scale and color, a light, delicate pink in a gem that tips the scales past two carats, a convergence seldom seen among comparable sapphires. Set in a simple yet secure mounting, its octagonal asscher outline commands presence on the finger, reflecting light in broad, elegant flashes, as shown in our hand photographs. For someone seeking a connection to the storied mines of Sri Lanka and the subtle romance of pink sapphire, this stone offers a personal story and a gemstone that stands apart in both its physical dimensions and its soft, captivating hue. If you would like to explore settings or see the sapphire in person, our team at The Natural Sapphire Company is ready to guide you through customization and certification, ensuring this rare gem finds the setting that best continues its journey.
