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

Introducing an exquisite gem from our exclusive collection at The Natural Sapphire Company, a transparent 0.96 carat cushion shape pinkish purple sapphire. This gemstone is a testament to the exceptional allure that Ceylon sapphires possess. With dimensions of 7.05 x 4.60 x 3.02 mm, the stone is cut in a mixed brilliant style, which optimally reflects light to enhance its natural beauty and reveal its subtle nuances. The mixed brilliant cut is renowned for its capacity to combine various faceting techniques, allowing for maximum brilliance and a play of light that surpasses that of more frequently encountered gemstones like amethyst and aquamarine. Such a cut ensures that this sapphire not only catches the eye but also holds it captive.

Part of what sets this sapphire apart from others is its color and clarity. Exhibiting a light color intensity, the pinkish purple hue is both unique and rare, a delicate balance that enhances its aesthetic appeal without overwhelming the senses. The clarity is graded as very very slightly included, which means that the inclusions are not visible to the naked eye. This level of clarity is rarely found in gemstones that exhibit such a distinctive color profile, enabling the sapphire to feature an interior world of unblemished beauty. The meticulous craftsmanship and excellent polish further heighten its allure, allowing for a surface that glides effortlessly beneath the gaze. Such qualities make it particularly appealing to connoisseurs who understand the significance of these attributes and the skill required in bringing them to fruition.

Originating from Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this sapphire carries with it a heritage of mining excellence and gemstone quality that spans centuries. Sri Lanka has long been celebrated for its production of sapphires that possess remarkable luminosity and rich hues. This geographic pedigree adds to its desirability, offering a piece of natural art that speaks to both the skill of its craftsmen and the inherent beauty that can only be derived from a region so attuned to the earth’s splendor. The Natural Sapphire Company takes pride in presenting this rare piece to discerning buyers who value not only the aesthetic qualities of a gemstone but also appreciate the intricate journey from mine to masterpiece that our sapphires undergo.
