0.95 Ct. Orange Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This transparent 0.95 carat princess shape orange sapphire measures 5.39 by 5.37 by 3.30 millimeters, and presents an intense, saturated orange hue with an excellent polish and a well executed princess cut. The proportions yield a depth of approximately sixty one percent, which helps balance face up color saturation with scintillation, making the vivid orange color read strongly in a variety of lighting conditions. Origin Ceylon Sri Lanka is noted for producing warm, golden to orange sapphires, and this stone displays the lively, bright character collectors and connoisseurs associate with fine Ceylon material. Enhancement has been disclosed, the sapphire is beryllium diffused, a deliberate treatment applied to deepen and stabilize orange tones. We at The Natural Sapphire Company fully disclose this treatment because it materially affects the color, and because transparency builds trust with informed buyers.

The clarity is graded slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and those inclusions become part of the gem’s individuality, serving as natural identifiers much like a fingerprint. Inclusions in sapphires commonly include tiny mineral crystals, fine needle like silk, and subtle growth zoning, and this stone displays small internal features that are visible to a trained eye but do not dominate the gem’s appearance. These features can aid in identification and provenance work, and they provide character by interacting with light to produce localized flashes and depth. Slightly included material is often preferred by buyers who value natural origin and uniqueness, because perfectly clean stones are rare and typically more heavily modified. The princess cut further conceals and distributes patterning, so the inclusions contribute to a lively internal pattern rather than detracting from the overall visual appeal. For the educated buyer seeking a vividly colored, well cut, and characterful Ceylon sapphire with full disclosure on treatment, this 0.95 carat orange princess offers strong color, reliable proportions, and a documented origin, and The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind its description and disclosure to ensure an informed purchase.
