5.29 Ct. Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing a gemstone that speaks volumes of elegance and distinction — a beautiful translucent 5.29 carat oval greyish blue star sapphire. This exquisite gem from The Natural Sapphire Company embodies personal power and sophistication through its rich, bold hues and unique quality. An eye-catching Ceylon sapphire, sourced from the famed mines of Sri Lanka, is a perfect representation of natural beauty finely crafted by the earth over millennia.

The allure of this star sapphire derives from its exceptional characteristics. It boasts a cabochon cut, a popular choice for star sapphires given the way light interacts with its surface, revealing an enchanting star-like visual effect. This phenomenon, known as asterism, is a testament to the stone’s internal beauty, a mesmerizing dance of light that captures attention instantly. The medium light color intensity paired with an excellent polish enhances its translucency, augmenting the overall appearance and depth of color to create a visual harmony that stands far beyond regular gemstones.

With dimensions of 10.66 x 9.20 x 5.12 mm, the gem offers a balanced proportion, making it a versatile choice for various types of fine jewelry. Whether set in a ring or a pendant, its elegance will elevate your accessory to a work of art. The clarity grade is evaluated as 'included' at eye level, meaning slight internal inclusions enhance its authenticity, confirming its natural origin — a significant aspect appreciated by gemstone connoisseurs and collectors. Each inclusion is like a fingerprint, making your gem truly one-of-a-kind.

Originating from Ceylon, or modern-day Sri Lanka, the sapphire comes from a region renowned for producing some of the best gemstones in the world.
