3.43 Ct. Peach Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This peach sapphire begins its story deep within the ancient soils of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, where heat and pressure over eons coaxed corundum to life in veins of crystalline perfection. Miners with knowledge passed down through generations gently extract these treasures, reading the rock like a map of time, and selecting only the crystals that promise color, transparency, and a soul. From that first discovery the rough was guided into the careful hands of cutters who understand both the science of light and the poetry of form. At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor that lineage by choosing sapphires that arrive to us in their natural state, without enhancement, and by letting the stone tell its own story through every facet and plane that we reveal.

Cut and craftsmanship transform this 3.43 carat peach sapphire into a jewel that seems to float between clarity and color. Measured at 9.51 x 6.40 x 5.29 mm, the emerald cut shape gives the gem an architectural grace, with broad step facets that create parallel ribbons of light and a table that invites the eye inward. The stone is transparent, with a clarity graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a level of purity that reads as pure and luminous to the naked eye. The medium light color intensity renders the peach tone as an elegant whisper of warmth rather than a shout, allowing the sapphire to be both subtle and deeply expressive. An excellent polish completes the transformation, imparting surfaces that catch and reflect light smoothly and evenly so that the sapphire glows from every perspective.

Seen in motion and in stillness, the sapphire reveals a choreography of reflections that reward attention from any angle. The emerald cut creates long mirrored planes that draw the gaze along the stone, emphasizing clarity and depth while the soft peach color plays across each step facet like dawn passing over calm water. Because there are no enhancements, the color is pure and authentic, originating in the mineral chemistry and geological conditions of its Ceylon birthplace. The very very slightly included clarity grade contributes to the gem by adding a natural signature that confirms its origin, yet at eye level the stone reads as clean and bright, so the light passes through and returns with a focused brilliance. The excellent polish means that each facet edge is crisp and each face is a mirror, so when the stone is set the metal and the setting designer will have the ideal partner in a stone that complements meticulous design.
