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

This 1.56 carat cushion shape pinkish purple sapphire is precisely cut to dimensions of 6.55 by 5.76 by 4.44 millimeters, presenting a depth of approximately 72.13 percent, a proportion that enhances internal light return and contributes to a lively table and scintillation. The mixed brilliant faceting combines a brilliant style pavilion with a modified cushion crown, creating a balance between pinpoint sparkle and broad flashes, and the excellent polish ensures crisp facet junctions and clean light transmission. Color is described as light intensity with a delicate pinkish purple hue that displays even tone across the table and crown, typical of fine Ceylon material, and the gem is natural with no enhancement, preserving original color and crystal chemistry. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, meaning inclusions are minimal and do not detract from face up transparency, the stone reads as essentially eye clean in hand, and the combination of cut proportions and clarity yields an attractive combination of brightness and soft color saturation suitable for a range of mounting styles.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we appreciate that untreated provenance amplifies both gemological and aesthetic value, and this Ceylon sapphire carries traditional connotations that appeal to collectors and connoisseurs. On a metaphysical level, pinkish purple sapphire is traditionally believed to blend the calming, wisdom enhancing qualities of blue sapphire with the heart opening energies associated with pink sapphires, promoting emotional balance, compassion, and clear minded insight. Many practitioners associate this color range with gentle activation of the third eye and crown areas, supporting intuition, spiritual clarity, and contemplative focus, while the pink undertones are said to encourage self love, forgiveness, and harmonious relationships. Because this piece is unenhanced and well cut, it is often preferred by those who value energetic authenticity, and it makes a refined choice for a personal talisman or a meaningful center stone in a bespoke design, combining technical excellence with a subtle, supportive metaphysical presence.
