2.23 Ct. White Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A cushion shaped white sapphire of rare poise, weighing 2.23 carats, with dimensions 8.57 by 7.40 by 4.27 millimeters, this stone is a study in restrained glamour. Cut in a mixed brilliant style and finished to an excellent polish, it balances the lively scintillation of brilliant facets with the soft elegance of a cushion silhouette. Its colorless intensity grants a purity that feels almost architectural, a cool clarity that reads as modern and timeless at once. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which gives the gem an honest character without compromising its luminous presence. Heat treated to enhance stability and brilliance, and sourced from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this sapphire carries with it the storied lineage of one of the world most celebrated gem lands. To wear this gem is to announce discernment, an appreciation for provenance and craftsmanship, and a confidence in understated luxury that signals status without ostentation.

Under changing light this white sapphire performs like a cultivated star, revealing distinct personalities with every movement. In bright daylight the mixed brilliant facets return a pure, icy white brilliance, each table and facet edge acting as a precise mirror that amplifies clarity, creating a cool cathedral of white light. Under warm incandescent illumination the stone takes on a softer, creamier radiance, the light diffusing across the crown to produce a warm glow that flatters the skin and imbues evening looks with a refined warmth. In candlelight or low ambient light the sapphire’s internal reflections become a private show, discreet flashes of white fire and lively scintillation that attract attention without shouting. Under modern LED or spotlighting the facet architecture snaps into high definition, producing crisp pinpoints of brilliance and a lively, almost diamond like scintillation that suits haute couture settings. Set in platinum or white gold, the gem will sing with maximum white radiance, while a halo of tiny accent stones will amplify its presence for those who seek greater spectacle. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this cushion white sapphire is more than a jewel, it is an emblem of achievement, a refined choice for the collector who desires a luminous expression of impeccable taste.
