2.77 Ct. Peach Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This 2.77 carat pear shape peach sapphire presents an exceptional combination of size and precision cutting, with exact dimensions of 10.60 x 6.49 x 4.87 mm, yielding a length to width ratio of approximately 1.63 and a depth ratio near 57 percent when measured against the mean girdle diameter. The cutting style is mixed brilliant, employing a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown to maximize scintillation, paired with a stepped pavilion to enhance color saturation and controlled light return. The facet junctions are sharply defined and the polish is excellent, producing crisp facet reflections and an even surface finish. Clarity is graded as slightly included at eye level, consistent with natural sapphire habit, with inclusions that do not materially obstruct the pavilion or crown facets, and in practical wear these features authenticate the stone without compromising visual performance. Color is intense peach, a balanced blend of warm orange and delicate pink tones that exhibits lively color evenly across the table and along the rounded wings of the pear, and no enhancement has been applied, reflecting the original Ceylon provenance in both hue and crystal characteristics.

For custom jewelry design this sapphire is ideally proportioned, the elongated pear silhouette offering both presence and versatility, suitable for a statement solitaire ring, an elegant pendant, or an asymmetric three stone composition, all designs that benefit from the 10.60 mm length which creates finger elongation or visual suspension in a pendant setting. The point is amenable to protective setting styles, the narrow tip lending itself to a tapered prong or bezel to safeguard against impact while maintaining the profile, and the mixed cut responds well to open head designs that allow light to enter the pavilion and accentuate the intense color. Given the slightly included clarity and unenhanced origin, designing with slightly open gallery work will showcase the natural character and allow viewers to appreciate the internal structure that confirms authenticity, while a halo treatment can increase perceived size and color contrast if desired. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind the gemological attributes and origin, and this peach sapphire is an excellent selection for a bespoke commission where precise proportions, authentic unenhanced color, and refined mixed brilliant craftsmanship are primary considerations.
