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

This single, exceptional gemstone represents a rare moment in nature captured and refined by expert hands, a one of a kind 1.57 carat round color change sapphire that arrives to you untouched by enhancement, direct from Ceylon Sri Lanka, and presented by The Natural Sapphire Company. Measuring 7.09 x 7.07 x 4.07 mm, this transparent jewel combines the desirable proportions of a classic round with a disciplined mixed brilliant cut, delivering a presence that is both intimate and unmistakable. The sapphire has been carefully evaluated as eye clean when viewed at normal retail distance, and it carries a medium intense color intensity that promises depth without heaviness. An excellent polish allows every facet edge to perform, and the lack of any enhancement certifies that its color change and clarity are wholly natural, a characteristic that collectors and connoisseurs prize above all. Owning this stone is not merely an acquisition, it is the entry into a discreet circle of collectors and clients who insist on authenticity, provenance, and the rare pleasure of a gem that has been left by the earth and preserved by human care without alteration.

The true spectacle of this sapphire is revealed in its geometry, the rhythmic precision of facet planes that masterfully orchestrate light and color, the mixed brilliant cut uniting a brilliant crown with a carefully faceted pavilion to create an optical interplay that is both lively and complex. Each kite facet, each star and bezel plane has been balanced to deliver maximum scintillation while preserving the color change that defines this gem, the geometry tuned so that photons are captured and redirected in a manner that magnifies both brilliance and hue shift. Under cool natural daylight the sapphire reads with cooler tones and clear transparency, the geometric faceting fragmenting daylight into crisp scintillation, while under warm artificial light the same precise facets deepen the saturation and reveal a warmer tone, the color change unfolding as a subtle transformation rather than a jarring switch. This is the benefit of intentional geometry, a mixed brilliant design that leverages acute angles and proportionate facet sizes to enhance light return and give movement to color, each tiny facet acting as a window or mirror in service to the whole, and the result is a stone that seems to breathe as light interacts with it.

For clients seeking a singular centrepiece, a collector desiring provenance and purity, or anyone who insists that their jewellery be as unique as their story, this sapphire is an invitation to bespoke creation, an opportunity to commission a setting that honors both the gem and its origins. The combination of its exacting dimensions, the one point five seven carat weight, the medium intense tone, the eye clean clarity, and the excellent polish makes it supremely well suited for an engagement ring that balances brilliance with a living color, for a pendant that will move and shift with the wearer, or for a private collection where rarity and natural integrity are the guiding principles. When you choose this sapphire you are selecting more than a stone, you are choosing a narrative of place and purity, a Ceylon origin that carries with it a legacy of fine sapphires and a finish untouched by enhancement. At The Natural Sapphire Company we curate these rare finds for discerning clients, we will facilitate detailed viewing and bespoke mounting recommendations, and we will ensure that when this stone joins your collection it does so as a singular statement of taste and rarity.
