This translucent 3.18 carat white sapphire from Ceylon offers a rare combination of near colorless clarity and a raw, rough crystal cut that speaks to authentic natural beauty, the stone measures 13.10 by 6.30 by 6.10 mm and has an excellent polish that lets it catch light with a subtle, satin glow, the lack of any enhancement means you are acquiring a genuine, untouched gem that retains the full character of its Sri Lankan origin, at The Natural Sapphire Company we find this piece ideal for a customer who wants something both elegant and intrinsically natural, the unusual various shape gives it personality whether set as a center stone in a bespoke engagement ring or featured in a collectors cabinet that celebrates geological form as much as brilliance.

Imagine this white sapphire set as the focal point of a custom piece paired with complementary gemstones to accentuate its soft, near colorless tone and textured silhouette, surround it with a halo of brilliant round white diamonds to amplify brightness while preserving the stone’s organic charm, flank it with two pear shaped Ceylon blue sapphires to introduce a classic color contrast that pays homage to the gem’s origin, or pair it with small pink sapphires for a warm, romantic palette that glows against rose gold, for a bold contrast consider deep green emerald accents which will make the white sapphire appear almost luminous, the various shape lends itself well to an east west orientation or an asymmetrical setting, a low bezel will protect the tapered edges while allowing the polished facets to interact with light, a fine open basket in platinum will maximize sparkle and durability, and a textured hammered band will echo the crystal cut for a cohesive artisan look, collectors may prefer a bespoke pendant on a simple chain with a trio of melee diamonds above the stone to create a gallery display that highlights the gem’s natural form, at The Natural Sapphire Company we can source matching accent sapphires from Ceylon to ensure color harmony and to craft a design that completes your search for a one of a kind jewel, this white sapphire answers the call for an original, unenhanced gem that works beautifully in both classic and contemporary custom jewelry.
