This purplish pink sapphire, weighing 2.17 carats, embodies that conviction.

The provenance of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, lends provenance of its own, a storied origin known to produce sapphires of extraordinary nuance and living color.

The cutting of this sapphire is a study in considered restraint and technical mastery. Executed in an asscher style, the faceting reinterprets the classic step cut within the poetic outline of a pear, creating broad, concentric planes that draw the eye to the heart of the stone. Each facet has been finished to an excellent polish, permitting the vivid color intensity to breathe and glow from within, while the step faceting produces a serene, hall of mirrors effect that is at once modern and timeless. Observed at eye level the clarity is graded very slightly included, a subtle fingerprint of natural origin that does nothing to diminish the gem’s visual purity, but rather affirms its authenticity. In a world of treated and synthetic alternatives, the absence of enhancement elevates this sapphire to rarity, a naturally realized perfection that will not fade or require later intervention.
