2.03 Ct. Purplish Pink Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite cushion shape purplish pink sapphire weighs 2.03 carat, and measures 7.09 x 6.62 x 4.27 mm, it features a mixed brilliant cut and an excellent polish, it is completely natural with no enhancement, its clarity is graded as very slightly included at eye level, and its color intensity is vivid, coming from Ceylon Sri Lanka. As a representative of The Natural Sapphire Company, I emphasize the importance of these specifications for an educated buyer, because the combination of vivid natural color, transparent body, and a mixed brilliant pavilion produces both strong color and lively light return, this stone represents high pedigree and transparency in treatment history, qualities that informed collectors and jewelers prize. The very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level indicates minor internal features that do not detract from the gem at a glance, yet they confirm natural origin and help distinguish this sapphire from synthetic or heavily treated material.

Under different lighting conditions this purplish pink sapphire will present subtly different personalities, in strong daylight or cool natural light the vivid color will read as a bright purplish pink with excellent saturation, the mixed brilliant cut allows fine faceting on the crown to catch daylight and return crisp scintillation, under warm incandescent light the pink tones will become richer and warmer, emphasizing the pink side of the hue and giving the gem a more romantic, glowing presence, in modern cool white LED lighting the contrast between facets will appear sharper, increasing perceived brilliance and making the stone flash with pinpoint light return, under directional spot or display lighting the mixed pavilion will deliver lively scintillation and flashes of deeper purple when viewed at certain angles, and in soft ambient or candle light the overall tone will deepen, showing a velvety purplish pink that reads as more saturated and luxurious.

For the educated buyer this sapphire offers key attributes of value, it is a sizable 2.03 carat cushion with a balanced cut that maximizes both color and brilliance, it is free of enhancement which preserves rarity and long term desirability, the Sri Lankan origin is known for producing lively, clean stones with attractive color, and the excellent polish ensures optimal light performance and durability in any fine jewelry setting. At The Natural Sapphire Company we can advise on settings that will accentuate either the vivid color or the sparkle, making this stone a confident choice for investment grade jewelry or a meaningful heirloom piece.
