2.52 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Orange Sapphire Pair from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This pair of round orange sapphires presents an uncommon combination of hue, clarity, and matched proportions, qualities that are rarely found together in the market. Individually they weigh 1.21 carats and 1.31 carats, and they are cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance table brightness with pavilion fire. The color is vivid and the stones are notably transparent, allowing light to pass cleanly through the facets and produce strong scintillation. The clarity grade is described as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which translates to an appearance that is effectively eye clean for typical jewelry use. These sapphires have received beryllium diffusion enhancement, a well established treatment that intensifies orange tones, and their documented origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a region known for producing fine saturated sapphires.

The proportions and dimensions contribute to the visual harmony of the pair, and offer practical information for setting and design. The smaller gem measures 6.32 x 6.33 x 3.94 mm, while the larger measures 6.47 x 6.45 x 4.00 mm. The close dimensional match supports balanced designs, particularly matched stud earrings or symmetrical accents in a custom piece. The mixed brilliant cut allows for a combination of large crown facets and a faceted pavilion, which enhances face up brightness while maintaining depth of color when viewed from multiple angles. The polish is graded excellent, resulting in smooth facet junctions and mirror like surfaces that maximize luster. Under typical lighting the vivid orange color reads consistently, and the gems exhibit the dynamic interplay of fire and brilliance that is characteristic of well cut sapphires.

Finding a matched pair with these specific attributes is uncommon, which underscores their rarity in the market. Orange sapphires in a vivid intensity are less frequently encountered than blue or pink varieties, and a closely matched duo with near identical dimensions, consistent color, and excellent polish increases difficulty of sourcing. For designers and collectors who require pairs that sit evenly and reflect light uniformly, specimens like these represent a rare opportunity. The slight difference in weight is small enough to be visually negligible in many settings, yet it provides a natural, artisanal variability that some clients prefer. The beryllium diffusion treatment is fully disclosed to allow accurate assessment of color origin and long term expectations, and provenance from Ceylon, Sri Lanka adds a documented narrative that is valued by many connoisseurs.

The Natural Sapphire Company confirms that these sapphires have been evaluated by experienced gemologists, and full disclosure of treatments and origin is provided to support informed decision making. The combination of vivid color intensity, very very slightly included clarity at eye level, excellent polish, and a precise mixed brilliant cut make this pair suitable for high quality jewelry where matched appearance is essential. Sapphires are naturally durable and appropriate for daily wear when set securely, and these stones are particularly well suited to stud earring settings or matched in a bespoke design that benefits from closely coordinated color and proportion. For buyers and designers focused on rarity and fidelity to specification, this matched pair offers a distinctive and professionally documented option, and further details and viewing arrangements are available through The Natural Sapphire Company.
