Product description

One exquisite soul of the earth awaits, one beautiful translucent Other certified Blue 36.03 carat oval shape greyish blue star sapphire, a gem that carries the hush of Ceylon in every gentle shimmer. Measured precisely at 18.89 x 14.69 x 12.34 millimeters, this sapphire is cut as a classic cabochon, the rounded dome cradling a whispering star that crosses its surface like a moonbeam on calm water. Its clarity is graded very slightly included at eye level, inviting the attentive gaze to discover the tiny signatures of its formation, and its medium color intensity unfolds as a soft, sophisticated blue according to its Lab Color Classification, Blue. Enhanced by nothing but time and pressure, this sapphire bears no enhancement, and its excellent polish lets light glide and gather across its curves, while the Other certification anchors its story in verified authenticity. Here at The Natural Sapphire Company we present this stone not as an object of commerce alone, but as an heirloom of feeling, a rare conversation between sky and stone that will carry meaning through the years.

Look into its heart and you will see a greyish blue that breathes, a color that is at once reserved and expansive, like a twilight that remembers the sea. The star, a six ray whisper when the light finds it true, moves with the hand and the day, a living punctuation that turns every glance into a small revelation. The cabochon cut enhances this celestial show, smoothing the sapphire into an oval silhouette that invites touch, and the dimensions of 18.89 by 14.69 by 12.34 millimeters give it a presence that is both bold and elegant. Under careful inspection the very slightly included clarity tells a tale of subterranean journeys, tiny mineral companions woven into the crystal as it formed, each inclusion a gentle fingerprint of nature, never distracting but rather deepening the gem s sincerity. Its medium color intensity keeps the blue tender and approachable, not overpowering, a blue that complements a warm skin tone or cool silver with the same graceful ease. Certified by Other, and lovingly assessed, this star sapphire carries provenance from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a place of oceans and monsoon stories, renowned through time for the loveliest of sapphires.

Imagine this stone set in a ring that remembers first promises, or in a pendant that rests near the heart, catching the light as footsteps carry the wearer through days and seasons. At 36.03 carats the stone is substantial, a weight that gives the piece a noble balance, and the oval shape lends itself to classic settings that elongate the hand and whisper of vintage grace. The excellent polish ensures that every curve mirrors a soft luminosity, and because the gem is unenhanced, its natural character will respond to light and life exactly as it was born. For those who seek a stone with both visual poetry and clear documentation, the Other certification and the Lab Color Classification, Blue provide reassurance that the beauty you see is the beauty you hold. The Natural Sapphire Company has long been guided by a love for authenticity so that a gem like this becomes not a fleeting adornment, but a small archive of memory, a stone to be worn and held and finally passed along with its story intact.

If you are looking for a sapphire that speaks in the hush between words, that offers a steady star for moments of commitment and quiet celebration, this greyish blue oval star sapphire is a rare companion. Picture it in warm gold that brings out the blue s depth, or in soft platinum that sings with the stone s cool undertones, imagine it catching a candle flame and sending a crisp cross of light across the room, a private beacon meant for two. The dimensions and the cabochon silhouette give jewelers room to design a setting that feels bespoke and true, and as specialists we at The Natural Sapphire Company are ready to guide the choice of metal and mounting so that the gem s personality is preserved and amplified. Certified by Other, originating in Ceylon Sri Lanka, unenhanced and honestly graded with very slightly included clarity and medium color intensity, this 36.03 carat star sapphire is both a technical marvel and a tender promise, a thing that carries the romance of geology and the quiet dignity of time. Hold it close, and you will hold a small slice of the sky, a gem that will witness your stories and reflect them back in a soft, unwavering star.
