0.40 Ct. Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Introducing an exquisite gem that truly stands out in the world of precious stones: a 0.40 carat oval-shaped yellow sapphire that exemplifies the artistry and precision synonymous with The Natural Sapphire Company. Expertly crafted, this beautiful sapphire measures 5.07 x 4.11 x 2.68 mm, a testament to its balanced proportions and the mastery involved in its creation. The mixed brilliant cut applied to this gemstone ensures a play of light that magnifies its natural beauty, allowing it to shimmer and dance with a radiance that sets it apart from more common gemstones.

In comparison to the allure of established favorites such as diamonds or rubies, the brilliance of this sapphire is compellingly unique. Its clarity grade of very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, suggests a purity not easily found, even among the rarest gems. This slight inclusion is not a flaw but rather a fingerprint of nature, enhancing the gem's character while maintaining a high level of transparency. The medium intense color intensity of this sapphire is particularly noteworthy. It captures the eye with its rich, vibrant yellow hue, offering an intensity and warmth that thousands of years of geological history in the mines of Ceylon have refined.

Further elevating its status is an excellent polish, evident from every angle. This aspect is crucial in maximizing the interplay of light and color, critical in transparent gemstones to enhance their inner fire. The seamless polish ensures that the surface reflects light without interruption, enabling an internal glow that illuminates this gemstone's natural beauty. While common gemstones may share similar characteristics, the careful craftsmanship and precision cutting of this yellow sapphire reveal a luminescence and depth of color rarely encountered, granting it a distinguished place in any fine jewelry collection.
