3.03 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The journey of this exquisite 3.03 carat cushion shape pink sapphire begins in the rich, mineral-laden soils of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, a region renowned for its stunning gems. Extracted from the earth with care, this sapphire's potential was recognized immediately by expert gemologists who noted its exceptional hue and clarity. Its dimensions, measuring 8.89 by 8.50 by 4.33 millimeters, suggested a promise of brilliance and fire, which was soon to be expertly unleashed.

The rough gemstone was transported to a skilled cutter who recognized that the beauty of this stone lay in its potential to captivate with every facet. Employing a mixed brilliant cut suited to maximizing both sparkle and color display, the cutter meticulously sculpted each facet. This technique involves combining various faceting styles to ensure that light interacts with the gemstone in the most dynamic way. The result is an extraordinary dance of light across its surfaces, enhancing the vivid color intensity of the pink sapphire. Rated as very slightly included, its clarity under eye evaluation reveals minuscule inclusions that attest to its natural formation, yet do not diminish its visual appeal.

A critical step, the polishing, was executed with utmost precision to achieve an excellent finish, allowing every facet to gleam with unabated luster. This process of craftsmanship culminates in a gemstone that not only reflects centuries of geological and artisanal expertise but also stands as a testament to its Sri Lankan origin. Offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, this certified 3.03 carat pink sapphire, with its vivid hue and exceptional faceting, awaits those who value the intricate artistry of nature and the masterful hand of human craftsmanship.
