2.62 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Orangish Yellow Sapphire Pair from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A matched pair that reads like a rare discovery, these cushion shape orangish yellow sapphires from Ceylon Sri Lanka announce themselves with confident radiance. We at The Natural Sapphire Company present these stones as a near perfect union, weighing 1.29 carats and 1.33 carats respectively, with dimensions of 6.37 x 6.24 x 3.80 millimeters and 6.29 x 6.24 x 3.73 millimeters. Each gem has been cut as a mixed brilliant, creating a lively dance of light across a vivid color field, and evaluated as eye clean at eye level with an excellent polish. These sapphires are beryllium diffused to achieve their sublime orangish yellow tone, a treatment that unlocks a level of color saturation rarely seen in matched pairs. Because matched pairs of this clarity, brilliancy, and hue are so seldom available, owning them becomes an admission into a select circle of connoisseurs who seek pieces that are as distinctive as they are wearable.

Imagine these sapphires set within a halo setting designed to amplify their singular warmth, every flank of white diamonds or warm gold beads acting as a stage for the main actors. In a classic white diamond halo, the surrounding stones will create a sharp, elegant contrast that makes the orangish yellow centers read brighter and more alive, intensifying the perceived saturation without overpowering the gems natural personality. If you prefer a softer statement, a rose gold halo will blend seamlessly with the sapphires golden undertones, producing a unified glow that seems to emanate from within. The cushion silhouette and mixed brilliant pavilion are ideal for halo work because their squared yet softened outline reads beautifully beneath a ring of smaller stones, while their faceting pattern throws scintillation both outward and inward, appearing larger to the eye than their carat weights might suggest. The precise dimensions of each stone allow for meticulous custom work, ensuring that the halo hugs each sapphire with balanced proportions that preserve symmetry and maximize light return.

To own this matched pair is to own a conversation starter, a piece that will be recognized by those who understand the language of fine gems, and cherished by those who appreciate something beyond mass produced luxury. At The Natural Sapphire Company we treat these sapphires as an invitation to craft something singular, offering bespoke design services that will pair them with ethically selected accent stones, artisanship, and settings that ensure each piece stands apart. Availability is limited because collections like this are seldom repeated, and once these stones are set they become an heirloom level signature that distinguishes you as a collector and a tastemaker. If you will choose to set them in a halo, expect a result that is both modern and timeless, a vivid focal point that reads with confidence at a distance and reveals nuanced fire up close.
