0.97 Ct. Color Change Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a moment that changes with the light, a single jewel that seems to breathe and shift like a secret memory. At The Natural Sapphire Company I have watched customers meet that moment and fall quietly and deeply in love. This is a transparent 0.97 carat cushion shape color change sapphire, cut to a harmonious mixed brilliant style that maximizes its inner fire and play of color. The gem measures 6.98 x 5.10 x 3.19 mm, a perfect size for an intimate engagement ring, a treasured pendant, or a refined pair of earrings that will be worn every day. From the first glance you feel the clarity and precision of the cut, and the cushion outline wraps light in a soft, flattering way, so the stone sits beautifully against skin and becomes part of the wearer story.

What makes this sapphire sing is its color change quality, a rare and romantic personality that moves with you from morning to evening. Under different lighting the gem reveals subtle shifts, moving between rich, royal hues and cooler, more serene tones, always with an intense color intensity that catches the eye. The excellent polish ensures each facet flashes with life, so the transformation is not a whisper but a vivid conversation with light. As a gem professional I can tell you that a mixed brilliant cut is chosen to balance scintillation and depth of color, giving you the best of both worlds, the sparkling fire of a brilliant and the elegant depth of a classic cushion form.

Beyond beauty this sapphire is pure in provenance and treatment, a true gem of conscience. Its origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a place known for producing historic and soulful sapphires, and this piece has received no enhancement, no heating, nothing to alter its natural story. Its clarity is graded very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means to the naked eye it reads as transparent and clean, while its tiny natural inclusions are a mark of authenticity rather than a flaw. For the mindful buyer who values honesty as much as beauty, this stone offers both. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind full disclosure, and we take pride in sourcing gems that are mined and traded with respect for people and place, so your jewel can be worn with a clear conscience and a light heart.

Choosing this cushion color change sapphire is choosing an heirloom that will be talked about for generations, a piece that fits seamlessly into a conscious collection. Imagine gifting this gem and watching a loved one see their own reflection change in the stone, a private miracle that becomes a shared story. For the collector who cares about origin, ethics, and lasting beauty, this gem is a living example of the harmony between nature and craftsmanship. It is ready to be set by your chosen designer or by our studio, to become an engagement ring that tells the truth about love, or a centerpiece that marks a milestone without compromising values. When you choose this sapphire through The Natural Sapphire Company you are choosing transparency, responsibility, and a jewel that will inspire joy every time it catches the light.
