0.45 Ct. Pinkish Purple Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing a true marvel from The Natural Sapphire Company, this exquisite transparent 0.45 carat pear-shaped sapphire is a testament to the splendor that nature has to offer. Originating from the illustrious mines of Ceylon, or present-day Sri Lanka, this gemstone not only captures the essence of rarity but also embodies the rich tradition of high-quality sapphires that this region is renowned for. The pinkish purple hue is reminiscent of the soft morning light, a color tone that is both delicate and invigorating. This medium light color intensity differentiated it from the deeper, more saturated purples seen in some African or Madagascan sapphires. The combination of pink and purple provides a unique luminescence, offering a gentle, serene aesthetic unmatched by stones from other locations.

Our gemstone's measurements of 6.05 x 4.11 x 2.72 mm highlight the expertise in cutting and the attention to detail that ensures maximum brilliance. The pear shape is elegantly tailored to showcase its mixed brilliant cut, enhancing the stone’s ability to reflect light with an extraordinary sparkle. The clarity grade is eye clean, meaning it is devoid of any inclusions visible to the naked eye, a hallmark of quality that gem connoisseurs appreciate. The excellent polish further magnifies the fiery inner glow of this sapphire, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship that is so characteristic of The Natural Sapphire Company.

This sapphire has undergone heat treatment, a standard enhancement practice, to bring out its most vibrant possible hues while maintaining its structural integrity. This process mirrors the time-honored techniques of world-renowned gem locations striving to offer high-quality stones to a discerning clientele. This enhancement, coupled with its Ceylon origin, positions this sapphire as not just a gemstone, but a piece of earth's art and heritage, a conversation starter that is a blend of nature’s beauty and skilled craftsmanship.

Whether you are a seasoned gemstone enthusiast or a first-time buyer seeking a distinctive addition to your collection, this sapphire commands admiration for its mesmerizing coloration and craftsmanship. In comparison, sapphires from the Kashmir region tend to exhibit a velvety blue, while those from Burma might present a deeper, almost opaque character. In contrast, this pinkish purple gem offers a lighter, more vivacious hue, making it a sought-after treasure for those who desire the unique and unparalleled. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we are passionate about bringing such extraordinary jewels to people who value both beauty and expertise. This gemstone is a wonder to behold and a privilege to own, testifying to the natural splendour endowed within the earth's crust.
