0.88 Ct. White Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This luminous princess shape white sapphire carries the quiet authority of centuries of gem cutting and trade, a stone that marries ancient provenance with a contemporary silhouette. Weighing 0.88 carat and measured at 5.69 x 5.40 x 2.85 mm, this Ceylon, Sri Lanka gem is a study in pure clarity and classical restraint. Its princess cut, executed with excellent polish, yields crisp pavilion facets that return light with a diamond like brilliance, while its colorless color intensity offers a clean, versatile canvas that complements any metal or design. The clarity grade is very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, meaning the stone presents a clean face up appearance and shows only minute natural characteristics under closer inspection. Untreated and without enhancement, this sapphire embodies the enduring appeal of natural gemstones that collectors and designers prize for their authenticity.

As a designer gem this white sapphire lends itself to an extraordinary range of settings, from the timeless to the adventurous. It is equally at home as the solitaire centerpiece of an engagement ring, held in a four or six prong mounting that showcases its princess geometry, as it is at the heart of a halo design, where a ring of pavé sapphires or diamonds amplifies its presence. For a modern look, consider a sleek bezel or tension mount that emphasizes clean lines, or a three stone composition flanked by colored sapphires for symbolic contrast. Its square outline and precise symmetry make it ideal for invisible set creations, channel set bands, and bespoke cufflinks or pendant designs that require a refined profile. The durable nature of sapphire means it wears well for everyday pieces, wedding jewelry, and heirloom commissions alike, offering longevity that matches its classical character.
