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

From the moment your eyes meet this pinkish purple sapphire, you will feel a little thrill, a flutter of joy that comes from knowing you have found something rare and alive. This is a transparent 1.50 carat round sapphire, a jewel that sings with an intense color intensity that seems to glow from within. The mixed brilliant cut gives it lively fire and scintillation, every facet working together to throw back light in playful, dancing flashes. At 6.78 x 6.79 x 3.98 mm this gem sits with perfect presence, large enough to command attention, yet graceful enough to pair with delicate settings. Its clarity is very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a natural fingerprint that speaks to authenticity and character rather than detracting from its beauty. The polish is excellent, each facet smoothed and finished to maximize brilliance, and importantly this sapphire is completely untreated, a true gift from the earth, originating in Ceylon Sri Lanka. When you hold it, you are holding centuries of geological poetry, and the connection to that story is immediate and unforgettable.

Imagine this vivid pinkish purple stone set into a ring, the centerpiece of an engagement moment, or the heart of a pendant that rests near the throat and catches glances with every tilt of the head. Because of its intense hue, this sapphire will stand out in any jewelry setting, whether set in cool white metals that sharpen its violet notes, or warm golds that coax out its rosy undertones. In a solitaire setting the round mixed brilliant cut will speak boldly, a single luminous eye that draws attention and admiration. In a halo, the surrounding diamonds will frame and lift the color, creating a conversation between sparkle and depth that feels both modern and timeless. For earrings, matched pairings or complementary stones will let the pinkish purple glow play against the face, bringing radiance to the wearer and a sense of joyful confidence. Every time the light finds it, the sapphire offers a private performance, a tiny, brilliant celebration that you can carry with you.
