2.65 Ct. Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the vibrant depths of Ceylon’s rich mineral earth emerges a gemstone of unparalleled beauty, our 2.65 carat pear-shaped orange sapphire. Discovered in Sri Lanka, a land renowned for its exquisite sapphires for centuries, this stone begins its journey amidst lush landscapes and ancient mines. Miners, skilled in their craft, draw this gem from the earth with precision and care, their practiced hands a link in the age-old tradition of gemstone stewardship. The natural environment of this tropical island imparts to this sapphire a medium intense color intensity, a vivid orange that captures the warmth of a sunset and the vibrancy of the island’s flora.

Our skilled artisans at The Natural Sapphire Company take the raw, unformed stone and begin the meticulous process of transforming it into the jewel that any connoisseur would covet. The stone's craftsmanship is nothing short of masterful—featuring a mixed brilliant cut that ensures each facet interacts beautifully with light, creating an enchanting play of sparkle that catches the eye. This cut enhances the gemstone's dimensions of 11.40 x 7.26 x 4.47 mm, presenting a piece that possesses both substance and elegance. Our lapidaries use techniques refined over generations to achieve an excellent polish, so flawless it magnifies the gemstone's natural beauty. The careful faceting ensures that even the very slightly included clarity grade—evaluated meticulously at eye level—adds character without compromising the brilliance or purity of the piece.
