2.21 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This transparent 2.21 carat pear shape pink sapphire originates from the storied alluvial deposits of Ceylon, Sri Lanka. Born in ancient metamorphic rock and carried by monsoon rivers, Ceylon sapphires have been prized for centuries for their vibrancy and clarity. This particular stone measures 9.78 by 6.55 by 4.33 millimeters, and its mixed brilliant cut has been executed to maximize scintillation while retaining a graceful pear silhouette. At eye level it is graded as very very slightly included, which speaks to its remarkable purity for a natural stone of this size, and its intense color intensity gives a vivid pink presence that captures both warmth and brilliance. An excellent polish brings each facet to life, allowing light to travel through the pavilion and crown with balance and fire. The provenance of Ceylon adds cultural and gemological value, because Sri Lankan sapphires are synonymous with a long heritage of careful mining, masterful cutting traditions, and a consistent palette that collectors and connoisseurs covet.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor that journey from rough to jewel with thoughtful craftsmanship and transparent reporting, and this sapphire has been heat treated to further refine its color in a stable and widely accepted manner, a common enhancement that unlocks the best expression of the stone without compromising durability. When set this 2.21 carat pear will sit elegantly on the hand, its measurements lending themselves to both classic solitaire and modern halo designs, and the mixed brilliant cut will scatter light in a way that complements rings, pendants, and bespoke pieces alike. Owning a Ceylon pink sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is owning a fragment of geology and history, a gem that began in ancient earth and was shaped by human skill into something wearable and personal. This stone invites an emotional connection, a conversation starter that speaks of place, care, and timeless beauty.
