0.75 Ct. Purple Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This rare purple sapphire is a discrete treasure, an exceptional single stone offered through The Natural Sapphire Company for discerning collectors who prize provenance and individuality. Weighing 0.75 carat, the gem is fashioned into a classic oval shape, and measures 6.99 by 4.92 by 2.49 millimeters, a proportion that balances presence with wearable elegance. Cut in a mixed brilliant style, the pavilion facets optimize light return while the crown facets offer scintillation and lively fire. The color sits in a medium intense purple range, a hue that is both regal and modern, shifting subtly in different lighting, and the clarity has been graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which preserves transparent brilliance while imparting character that confirms its natural origin. The stone has received a stable heat treatment enhancement, a widely accepted practice that gently amplifies color and clarity, and the finish is an excellent polish, ensuring every facet edge gleams. Origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka lends this stone a storied lineage, the island renowned for producing saffire with refined tones and luminous saturation, a provenance that elevates the sapphire beyond ordinary gemstones. This particular specimen is singular in our current collection, reserved for clients who seek something distinct, and we present it as a stone to be transformed into heirloom quality jewelry.

Imagine this oval purple sapphire set in an array of bespoke jewelry designs, each a private commission that honors the gem’s proportions and personality. As a solitaire ring the oval will read as timeless and intimate, ideal for a low profile four prong setting that secures the stone while maximizing light performance, or a six prong vintage inspired head that adds architectural balance and daily durability. For those desiring amplified presence without increasing carat weight, a halo of petite brilliant cut white diamonds will magnify the sapphire’s purple core, creating a luminous contrast that reads both classic and couture. An east west mounting offers a contemporary twist, elongating the finger and offering a fashion forward silhouette, while a bezel setting will provide a sleek, modern protection that suits an active lifestyle. In pendants and necklaces the oval sits perfectly in a simple bezel for an everyday signature piece, or within a suspended halo for evening drama, and for earrings the stone can be paired with matching sapphires or asymmetric diamond accents for a fashion forward statement. For cuff bracelets and signet style rings the shallow depth of 2.49 millimeters allows creative low profile mounts that rest comfortably against skin, and for cocktail rings a custom three stone composition will let the purple sapphire play center with tapered trapezoid or pear shaped side stones for a bespoke narrative.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we treat each commission as an intimate collaboration, reserved for a select clientele who value exclusivity and impeccable craftsmanship. When you choose this Ceylon purple sapphire, you gain access to our design atelier where we provide personalized consultations, hand drawn sketches or computer aided renderings to visualize your piece, and professional recommendations on metal choice and setting type. Warm yellow gold will emphasize the gem’s regal undertones, rose gold will impart a romantic vintage glow, and platinum or white gold will maximize color contrast and contemporary elegance. We can advise on prong counts and protective settings when daily wear is desired, and suggest companion gems for a balanced palette, whether that means sparkling white diamonds, subtle accent sapphires, or unique colored accents that complement the medium intense purple. Because this sapphire is a unique natural item from Ceylon Sri Lanka, availability is limited, and we extend this offering to a few clients at a time, ensuring exclusive access to the stone and dedicated attention throughout the design and creation process. If you are ready to own a gemstone that is both rare and eminently wearable, contact The Natural Sapphire Company to arrange a private viewing and begin the bespoke design experience that will transform this exquisite oval purple sapphire into a personal heirloom.
