0.95 Ct. Bi Color / Parti Star Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There is a singular, timeless appeal to a Ceylon star sapphire that traces its lineage back through centuries of lapidary tradition, and this transparent 0.95 carat oval bi color parti star sapphire is a fine example of that enduring legacy. Mined in Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a region synonymous with some of the most celebrated sapphires in history, this gem has been shaped into a classic cabochon to reveal the celestial asterism that has fascinated collectors and connoisseurs since antiquity. Measuring 6.11 x 5.20 x 3.01 mm, the oval silhouette is elegant and wearable, and its cabochon cutting style has been executed to achieve an excellent polish that allows the star to glide smoothly across the dome as the light moves. The gem is transparent, with a clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a testament to its natural character and authenticity, and it displays a medium color intensity that lets the parti colors sing in harmony without overpowering the stone.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we celebrate such pieces for their history, rarity, and suitability as heirloom jewels that can be worn today and treasured by future generations. This star sapphire is untreated, with no enhancement, which preserves its natural story and ensures longevity for those who value authenticity and tradition. Its modest 0.95 carat weight, combined with the classic oval cabochon form, makes it an ideal centerpiece for a range of traditional settings, from a signet style ring that speaks of lineage, to a simple pendant that carries a quiet dignity. For clients seeking a bespoke creation, we can advise on mounting choices that honor the stone, balancing metal color and setting style to highlight the parti tones and the luminous star. If you would like further details, provenance information, or guidance on design options and secure setting recommendations, our specialists at The Natural Sapphire Company are available to assist, ensuring that this Ceylon star sapphire is integrated into a design that reflects both the gem s ancient roots and your personal legacy.
