2.09 Ct. Peach Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional 2.09 carat transparent cushion shape peach sapphire presents itself with precise dimensions of 7.35 x 6.32 x 4.68 mm, a faceted cutting style and a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes both scintillation and overall light return. Sourced from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this gem carries the provenance that knowledgeable collectors prize, and it is offered by The Natural Sapphire Company. The stone exhibits medium color intensity, a delicate and appealing peach hue that balances saturation with lightness, allowing versatility in design while retaining a distinctive, warm character. Importantly, this sapphire is untreated, no enhancement, which significantly elevates its rarity and value to the discerning buyer who prefers natural colour and original formation. The polish is graded excellent, contributing to crisp facet junctions and a surface finish that enhances the gem s transparency and sparkle.

From a clarity and cutting perspective this sapphire is graded slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates that inclusions are present but do not dominate the gem s appearance to the naked eye. Slightly included material often allows the natural character of the sapphire to remain visible under magnification while preserving strong face up appeal. The mixed brilliant cut within a cushion outline has been executed to produce lively return of white and colored light. The gem s proportions yield a depth of approximately 68.5 percent, a dimension that supports deep internal reflections and a pleasing face up presence without appearing overly windowed or dark. The combination of excellent polish and thoughtfully calibrated facet angles contributes to an impressive brilliance and a finely resolved pattern of light and contrast that makes this sapphire a compelling focal point when set.

For an educated buyer considering investment quality, provenance and treatment status are decisive factors, and this Ceylon peach sapphire meets both criteria favorably. Natural, unenhanced sapphires from Sri Lanka are sought after for their classic colors and stable, predictable wear characteristics, and the medium color intensity of this piece lends itself to settings that either amplify warmth or introduce contrast. Paired with rose or yellow gold the peach tones become more pronounced, while a halo of small white sapphires or diamonds can increase perceived size and sparkle, allowing this stone to serve as a striking engagement center or a statement pendant. Sapphires are corundum with a hardness of nine on the Mohs scale, making them highly durable for daily wear while retaining superb polish over time. At The Natural Sapphire Company we can provide additional images, loupe level observations and independent laboratory documentation upon request, to ensure you have the detailed information trusted buyers rely on when selecting a natural, untreated gemstone that combines exceptional cut, credible origin, and enduring appeal.
