2.14 Ct. Pink Star Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One available specimen is a translucent Other certified pink star sapphire weighing 2.14 carats, presented in an oval shape with finished dimensions of 7.00 x 6.13 x 4.83 millimeters. The gem is fashioned as a cabochon cut to display its star effect, and it carries a lab color classification of pink. Clarity is graded as eye clean when evaluated at eye level, and the overall color intensity is described as intense. The surface finish is classified as excellent polish. The piece has been heat treated as an enhancement, and its reported origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka. All details for this item are recorded and verifiable through the Other laboratory certificate provided with the stone, and The Natural Sapphire Company references this documentation in our inventory records.

Optical characteristics are notable for a well defined asterism visible under direct lighting, producing a distinct six ray star that centers near the top of the dome and remains visible across a range of viewing angles. The stone’s translucency permits sufficient light transmission to produce a vibrant and even pink body color while maintaining the contrast necessary for a clear star. The eye clean clarity at standard viewing distances contributes to the uniformity of the star, minimizing internal interruptions that could diffuse or offset the asterism. Luster from the polished dome is bright and reflective, providing crisp star lines that exhibit good contrast against the pink body color.

The cabochon proportions and symmetry have been executed to optimize the star phenomenon and wearability. The oval outline and measured height support a visually balanced dome that presents the asterism centrally when set in typical bezel or prong settings. The stone’s dimensions make it suitable for a range of jewelry applications including rings, pendants, and bespoke settings where the star is intended to be the focal element. The excellent polish enhances surface durability and visual appeal, while the heat treatment applied is consistent with established practices for improving color saturation and overall appearance. When planning a mounting, consideration of the light source and orientation will maximize the perceptibility of the star in daily wear.

Provenance and certification are documented, with the origin reported as Ceylon Sri Lanka and the laboratory certification identified as Other. The Natural Sapphire Company retains the laboratory report and makes it available to clients for verification and appraisal purposes. Care recommendations for this heat treated pink star sapphire include routine cleaning with warm water and mild detergent using a soft brush, avoidance of harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to extreme heat, and professional inspection of the setting at regular intervals to ensure the stone remains secure. This description is intended to provide a factual and detailed overview of the gem’s material attributes, optical properties, and practical considerations for setting and care, supporting informed decisions for appraisal, design, and integration into finished jewelry.
