The Natural Sapphire Company is proud to present a gem of exquisite precision and artistry, a transparent 2.60 carat radiant shape white sapphire of outstanding quality. This gem, with dimensions measuring 7.70 x 6.98 x 5.04 mm, exemplifies the pinnacle of gem-cutting craftsmanship and is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Ceylon, or modern-day Sri Lanka, known for producing some of the world’s most exceptional sapphires. This splendid white sapphire has been masterfully cut into a radiant shape, a style renowned for its complex faceting that magnifies the brilliance of the stone and provides a unique blend of the emerald and round cut characteristics.
Our sapphire’s radiant cut is no ordinary geometric form. It features a comprehensive faceting architecture that taps into the symbiotic relationship between the stone and light, maximizing the interplay of brilliance and fire. With the radiant cut, this sapphire offers seventy facets that have been meticulously aligned to ensure maximum light return, allowing it to sparkle with a fiery brilliance that captivates even the most discerning eye. This facet configuration comprises vertical facets along the crown and concentric facets within the pavilion, creating a striking aesthetic with its signature clipped-cornered rectangular outline. The intricacy of these cut facets means every debut of light captures a dance of colors across the surface of the gemstone, providing a dazzling visual treat.
Beyond the radiant cut allure, this white sapphire maintains a clarity grade of very slightly included, thoroughly evaluated at eye-level to provide a near-flawless experience to any gemstone enthusiast. This degree of clarity ensures that any internal characteristics present are scarcely perceptible even to those with a practiced eye, ensuring the integrity of the stone’s crystal-clear aesthetics. Near colorless in intensity, the sapphire possesses an alluring transparency which serves as an excellent canvas to showcase its masterful cut, directing attention to its breathtaking sparkle rather than itself. The subtle variations of color, a near-absence of hue, lend this sapphire a stunning presence, allowing for versatility in pairing with a variety of jewelry settings.
A commendable aspect of our sapphire is its excellent polish that pronounces the brilliance inherent in its cut. Each facet has been polished to perfection, which results in an impeccably smooth, flawless surface. This demonstrates the sheer craftsmanship associated with the Ceylonese gem-cutting tradition, where every carat is shaped with precision tools against time-honored techniques to achieve superior luster and shine. This polishing element augments both the visual and tactile appeal of the sapphire, left unblemished by asymmetries or surface irregularities often encountered in inferior stones. The diligent attention to polish elevates this sapphire from mere gemstone to a gemstone of distinguished refinement and class.
The Natural Sapphire Company invites the connoisseurs, collectors, and lovers of fine gemstones to experience this shimmering piece of artistry. Our faithful commitment to authenticity ensures that the sapphire we offer is not only a paragon of natural gemstone beauty from Ceylon but also a gem refined by the best of both traditional expertise and innovative techniques. When considering a piece from The Natural Sapphire Company, one is not merely selecting a gemstone but acquiring a legacy of nature’s brilliance and the acumen of human craftsmanship that has been curated to elevate even the finest jewelry pieces.
