0.19 Ct. Purple Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

The exquisite transparent 0.19-carat Asscher cut purple sapphire we offer stands as a testament to the storied heritage and timeless appeal of Ceylon gemstones. For centuries, the island of Sri Lanka, historically known as Ceylon, has been revered for producing truly remarkable sapphires, each imbued with history, romance, and unmatched beauty. Our Asscher cut gemstone, with dimensions of 3.58 x 3.55 x 1.81 mm, is no exception. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we take immense pride in presenting a piece that not only captures the ancient allure but also meets the highest standards of modern craftsmanship.

What sets this Asscher-shaped purple sapphire apart from others on the market is the combination of its meticulous craftsmanship and superior quality. The Asscher cut, known for its structural elegance and step facets, is expertly employed to enhance the stone's deep and intoxicating purple hue. Unlike stones that fall short of their potential due to poor cutting, our sapphire benefits from an excellent polish that ensures maximum light reflection, allowing the intense color intensity to captivate admirers from all angles. When you hold this gem, its very slightly included clarity grade, higher than much of the competition, offers a near-perfect viewing experience that speaks to its authenticity and natural beauty.

In an era where precious gems are often manufactured or artificially enhanced, The Natural Sapphire Company remains steadfast in our dedication to authenticity and unaltered excellence. This sapphire, with its strong ties to the rich traditions of Ceylonese jewelers, reflects a uniqueness that mass-produced alternatives simply cannot emulate. The international marketplace is replete with indistinguishable sapphires from dubious origins, yet our gemstone’s provenance assures the wearer of Ceylon’s renowned quality and ethical extraction. This heritage not only adds value in terms of aesthetics and provenance but also imbues each piece with a story, and a connection to cultures and crafts that have revered sapphires for millennia.

As discerning customers search for unique luxuries, understanding the underlying stories and values becomes imperative. The Asscher cut purple sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is not just a jewel but a conversation piece, bridging the gap between ancient tradition and contemporary elegance. Our customers are not simply purchasing a stone; they are investing in a piece of Sri Lanka’s illustrious history preserved and presented with utmost care. We firmly believe that this distinction in heritage and quality positions our purple sapphire as a superior choice in any discerning collector's or admirer’s trove, setting a benchmark against which all other gemstones are measured.
