The secret to the unmatched sparkle you see is both scientific and artisanal, a marriage of the sapphire crystal structure with masterful cutting and finishing. As a corundum, this sapphire is built on a dense lattice of aluminum and oxygen, a structure that bends and returns light with a high refractive index, creating brightness and internal fire that most gems cannot match. Our mixed brilliant cut amplifies that natural advantage, with a brilliant style crown that scatters light into lively flashes, and carefully angled pavilion facets that guide light back to the eye as scintillation and sparkle. The excellent polish ensures that every facet face is smooth and true, so light does not scatter away but dances across the surface, and the slight inclusions give the stone character without dimming its performance, adding depth and a reminder of its natural origin. Because this sapphire is untreated, the interplay between color and light remains pure and authentic, allowing the intense pinkish purple hue to shift and glow as you move, creating moments of surprise and delight. If you are seeking a gem that will become a treasured keepsake, this Ceylon oval from The Natural Sapphire Company is ready to be set into a design that will make the wearer beam with joy, and we are here to help you realize that dream.
