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

Emerging from the heart of the earth, steeped in centuries of myth and lore, and born of nature's alchemical wonder, is our exquisite 1.02 carat pinkish purple sapphire. This gem boasts a translucent clarity that subtly reveals its inner world of light and hue, captured with dimensions of 7.28 x 5.18 x 3.41 mm. This understatement of size belies the great depth of character inherent within this elegant stone, which owes its heritage to the timeless tradition of sapphire mining in the illustrious lands of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka. Here, amidst ancient landscapes and spirited artisans who have breathed life into the natural bounty for generations, lies the fabled mine, producing some of the world's most sought-after sapphires—an eternal testament to nature's splendor.

The mixed brilliant cut of this gemstone is a nod to the rich history of sapphire cutting, offering a masterful balance that aesthetically marries past precision with present-day virtuosity. This specific cut enhances the gem's inherent optical performance, unveiling a captivating play of light that transforms the inner blues and purples into a suffusion of pinkish reflections. As each facet interacts with ambient light, the stone demonstrates an effortless scintillation, much like a whispered symphony of light and color. By its very design, the mixed brilliant cut mitigates any visible inclusions, preserving a clarity grade of "very slightly included," which promises an intriguing view at normal eye level, preserving the depth and purity of its medium intense color.

The profound brilliance and polish of our sapphire have been expertly executed through a labor of love and meticulous craftsmanship. An excellent polish infers a lustrous surface that magnifies the stone's character by maximizing its reflective facets. As light skims the surface, it is both absorbed and refracted alike, revealing color tones that seem both vibrant and timeless. Historical allusions liken the sapphire’s glow to that of the evening star's shimmer which lovers of tradition and admirers of gemstones throughout millennia have gazed upon, enshrining their dreams. Such is the timeless allure preserved and awaited by sapphire connoisseurs longing for their chance to capture a moment in light and perpetuate a legacy of beauty.
