3.04 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One beautiful transparent 3.04 carat oval pink sapphire measuring 9.82 x 7.87 x 4.97 mm is presented here, cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance scintillation and broad flash. The mixed brilliant cut allows for excellent light return from the crown facets while maintaining depth and color saturation through the pavilion. The stone displays vivid color intensity, and an excellent polish that enhances surface luster and maximizes visual appeal. Clarity has been evaluated as very slightly included at eye level, meaning that the gem appears clean to the unaided eye, while small natural features are present under magnification and do not detract from the overall transparency or brilliance. This sapphire has been heat treated, a widely accepted and stable enhancement for corundum that improves both color and apparent clarity without compromising structural integrity.

Origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a historic and highly regarded source for pink and blue sapphires, and this provenance contributes directly to the stone’s character and value. Sri Lankan sapphires are prized for their lively tones and even saturation, and a vivid pink of this size and clarity from Ceylon is both uncommon and collectible. As corundum, sapphire rates nine on the Mohs hardness scale, making this gem well suited for daily wear in a ring setting, as well as for more showpiece pendants or earrings, while retaining long term durability. For the discerning buyer, the combination of a precise mixed brilliant cut, excellent polish, transparent body, and vivid color intensity creates a balance of aesthetic and technical attributes that are the hallmarks of a quality collector stone.
