24.75 Ct. Blue Sapphire Crystal from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional translucent 24.75 carat various shape blue sapphire measures 23.18 x 18.73 x 11.17 mm, and presents in a rough crystal cut that celebrates the natural growth form of the stone, while an excellent polish provides a refined surface response to light. Clarity is graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates inclusions are minimal to the unaided eye and contribute to the gem story rather than detract from its presence. The color intensity is light, yielding a delicate, ethereal blue that is clearly natural, with no enhancement reported. Origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source historically prized for sapphires that combine attractive tone with clarity, and the fact that this stone is untreated increases its desirability and long term value to a discerning buyer. For collectors and designers seeking contrast or an organic statement piece, pairing this sapphire with White Opal as accent stones enhances the overall composition, as White Opal provides a soft, diffuse play of light that complements the sapphire without competing with it.

From a styling and color theory perspective, the light blue of this sapphire is remarkably versatile when set in jewelry, and its visual effect can be tailored by choice of metal and setting. On fair skin tones the pale blue reads as a subtle, almost pastel accent, creating an elegant, understated look. On medium and olive complexions the same light blue offers fresh contrast, brightening the hand or neckline, and it harmonizes especially well when paired with warm yellow gold to enhance underlying warmth. On deeper skin tones the translucency and light tone of this sapphire produces a luminous, high contrast effect that emphasizes clarity and silhouette, with white metals such as platinum or white gold sharpening the cool aspect, and rose gold lending a gentle, flattering glow. The rough crystal cut makes this stone ideal for bespoke, artisan settings, where prong or bezel mounts can both protect the profile and showcase the natural form, while accents of White Opal can add a shimmering backdrop that elevates the aesthetic. Offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, this piece represents a rare combination of size, provenance, and natural character, suited to collectors and jewelry designers seeking an authentic untreated Ceylon sapphire.
