6.56 Ct. Yellow Rough Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine the joy of crafting a truly one of a kind piece from a sapphire that feels like it was mined just for your story, a translucent 6.56 carat rough shape yellow sapphire, with generous dimensions of 18.90 x 6.70 x 5.50 mm, a natural form that invites creativity and emotion. This stone carries the warmth of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, and the medium color intensity creates a sunny glow that complements skin and metal with effortless grace. Its clarity is included, evaluated at eye level, and those natural inclusions tell a story only nature could write, adding depth and character that polished perfection cannot imitate. With an excellent polish on parts of the surface and no enhancement, this sapphire arrives as an honest celebration of raw beauty, ideal for custom jewelry designs that honor authenticity.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we see this elongated silhouette as an inspiration for designers and dreamers, a shape that adapts beautifully to many settings and styles, from a dramatic vertical pendant that catches light with every step, to a modern bezel ring that showcases its length, to a sculptural suite where the stone is embraced by clean metal lines or softened by organic settings. The size is perfect for creating a statement piece without overwhelming the wearer, and the unique proportions allow lapidaries to fashion elegant cabochons, subtle faceted profiles, or retain the rough charm for a bold raw look. The fact that the stone is unenhanced means every decision you make in the design process honors the original, natural hue and integrity of the sapphire, giving your custom piece a provenance and resonance that will be treasured for years. Let this Ceylon yellow sapphire become the heart of a gift that marks a milestone, a token of joy, or a daily reminder of love, a gem that transforms a moment into a memory with those sunlit tones, natural inclusions, and a silhouette made for personal expression.
