5.16 Ct. Orange Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Sapphire Company I am proud to present a rare and vivid GIC certified orange sapphire, a 5.16 carat, emerald cut gem measuring 11.50 by 8.01 by 5.57 millimeters, offered as a single, extraordinary treasure. This stone displays a vivid color intensity that seems to glow from within, paired with a transparency that invites the eye to travel through its perfectly faceted planes. The clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, assuring that the gem reads clean and lively to the unaided eye, while the excellent polish enhances each facet to create crisp reflection and a refined finish. Originating in Ceylon Sri Lanka, a historic source for the world finest sapphires, and presented with GIC certification, this piece is heat treated in a stable and accepted manner to fully reveal its brilliant orange tone, making it a distinctly collectible and wearable rarity for those who seek exclusivity.

Beyond its captivating beauty this emerald cut orange sapphire stands as a gemstone built for enduring enjoyment, sapphire being a nine on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond which rates ten. This high hardness translates to exceptional resistance to scratches compared with common gems such as quartz and topaz, ensuring that your investment will withstand daily wear when set with thoughtful protection. The emerald cut lends a sophisticated, architectural elegance, while the stone size and step facets create a confident presence on the hand, ideal for a bespoke ring or a unique pendant.
