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

One beautiful transparent 2.27 carat heart shape purplish pink sapphire, cut in a faceted mixed brilliant style, offers an immediate visual advantage over many market alternatives. Its dimensions of 7.95 by 7.91 by 4.75 mm create a pleasing, well proportioned outline that maximizes surface brilliance and table size without sacrificing depth. The intense color intensity and excellent polish allow this stone to display a lively, saturated purplish pink that reads richer and more vivid than many standard pink sapphires that can appear washed out or brownish in less careful material. With a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, the gem presents superb transparency and eye appeal, outperforming lower clarity stones that need higher magnification to look attractive. Heat treated to enhance stability and color, this sapphire offers the best balance of natural beauty and market durability, at a price point that represents notable value compared to untreated stones of similar appearance that command a heavy premium, or to lower grade heat treated pieces that do not achieve the same vibrancy or polish.
