3.62 Ct. Brown Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

You are seeking a unique center stone that speaks to individuality, durability, and timeless warmth, and this transparent Other certified Brown sapphire from Ceylon, weighing 3.62 carats, answers that need precisely. The fancy elongated shape, with dimensions of 13.45 x 8.75 x 3.77 millimeters, is given a refined architectural presence by a step cut, and the excellent polish ensures each facet surfaces with a crisp reflective clarity. Evaluated at eye level as very slightly included, this sapphire reads as clean and confident face up, while its dark color intensity delivers a saturated roasted coffee hue with subtle chestnut and graphite undertones. Because there is no enhancement, the color and tone are wholly natural, offering the assurance collectors and discerning buyers seek, when provenance and authenticity matter.

When comparing hue and tone to sapphires from other celebrated sources, this Ceylon brown stands apart in its balance of depth and transparency, unlike some Australian brown sapphires which can present as more opaque and inky, or like certain Madagascan stones which lean toward warm golden brown and honeyed tones. Against a Montana brown that often carries steely coolness, and against the velvety blues of Kashmir or the rich cornflower notes of classic Ceylon blues, this specimen maintains a unique personality, more earthy and contemplative than fiery, more architectural and modern than rustic. For an engagement ring for someone seeking an unconventional yet sophisticated choice, or for a collector pursuing natural, untreated rarities with clear documentation, this stone is an elegant solution. The Natural Sapphire Company presents this piece as a ready candidate for bespoke mounting, where the step cut will read as an artisanal focal point and the natural dark intensity will integrate beautifully with warm metals or stark platinum settings, ensuring a versatile and enduring statement.
