This exquisite 6.03 carat cushion shape purplish pink sapphire from Ceylon is a stone that speaks directly to a history of craftsmanship and reverence. Sapphires from Sri Lanka have been treasured for centuries for their luminous colors and enduring beauty, and this gem embodies that legacy. Measuring 11.29 x 9.37 x 6.25 mm and cut in a mixed brilliant style, its facets marry old world charm with modern brilliance, creating a depth and fire that invites the eye to linger. The intense color intensity presents a vibrant purplish pink that feels both regal and intimately personal, while the excellent polish ensures every facet reflects light with clarity and grace. Graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, this sapphire appears eye clean and presents as a pure and vivid jewel, ideal for an elegant solitaire or a classic halo setting that will honor its antique inspired silhouette.

Beyond its immediate visual appeal, this sapphire promises to captivate for generations, not only because of its striking hue but because of its inherent durability and timeless design. As a corundum, the stone ranks a nine on the Mohs scale, offering remarkable resistance to everyday wear and the ability to be worn daily with confidence. The mixed brilliant cut enhances both brilliance and depth, so as light changes across the years the gem will continue to reveal new facets of its personality. The sapphire has undergone a traditional and stable heat treatment to enhance its natural color and clarity, a respected practice that has been used for decades to bring the very best qualities of Ceylon sapphires to light. Combined with a conscientious setting and routine care, this stone will remain a luminous focal point of any jewelry collection, heirloom ready and always in style.
