1.35 Ct. Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

In the heart of Ceylon, known today as Sri Lanka, lies a land steeped in mystery and tradition, where the earth cradles one of nature's most beautiful treasures—the purple sapphire. This exquisite gemstone begins its journey deep beneath the tropical soils, where it is born from a geological symphony of heat, pressure, and time. Over millennia, these elemental forces weave their magic to create the sapphire’s unique crystalline structure, capturing the allure of this ancient land within its facets. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we are honored to present a masterful 1.35 carat cushion-shaped purple sapphire, a tribute to nature and artistry.

The pillow-like cushion shape of this sapphire enhances its natural beauty, a testament to expert craftsmanship and the passion with which our artisans work. With dimensions of 6.57 by 6.18 by 4.01 mm, the gemstone captures and reflects light in delicate glimmers that echo the magical twilight of its origin. The mixed brilliant cut is a marvel of modern gem cutting, designed to unleash an unparalleled sparkle that casts an enchanting dance of color in every direction. The play of light within this gemstone is akin to the shimmering haze over Ceylon's verdant hills at dusk, mysterious yet inviting.

This particular sapphire boasts a medium intense color intensity, a hue that speaks of royalty, creativity, and wisdom, differing from the traditional blue sapphires and offering instead a unique visual narrative. Its very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, ensures that while a few minute inclusions are present, they do nothing but narrate the story of its natural genesis. This clarity, combined with an excellent polish, grants the gemstone a mirror-like finish that elevates its brilliance and enhances its character. At The Natural Sapphire Company, we take pride in transforming these wonders of nature into works of art that echo both heritage and elegance.

As you hold this gemstone, imagine the hands that have mined, cut, and polished it, each stage of its creation adding to its saga. It’s more than a jewel; it is a tale told through time, from the depths of Ceylon's storied landscapes to your own fingers. Wearing this purple sapphire, you are not just adorned with a precious stone, you are connected to its history and its purity. Allow yourself to be a part of its journey—a timeless legacy from The Natural Sapphire Company to you.
