0.57 Ct. Yellowish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are moments when a gemstone transcends mere adornment and becomes a defining statement of personal refinement. This 0.57 carat cushion shape yellowish green sapphire is such a jewel, offered with the assurance and pedigree of The Natural Sapphire Company. Its precise dimensions of 4.96 by 4.19 by 3.05 millimeters and its mixed brilliant cut have been expertly executed to maximize fire and scintillation, while an excellent polish ensures each facet greets the light with a crisp, mirror like clarity. Transparent in body, with a medium color intensity that yields a sophisticated interplay between verdant green and honeyed yellow, this sapphire has a clarity grade described as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a rarity that reads as clean and luminous to the unaided eye. Origin Ceylon Sri Lanka informs the stone with the island style of color and depth that connoisseurs prize, and the enhancement of heat treatment has been applied in a controlled and standard manner to stabilize and enrich the tone, a permanent enhancement when performed by seasoned lapidaries.

Viewed in motion, the cushion silhouette sings, a compact canvas for the mixed brilliant cut to produce a lively dance of light that alternately reveals green, yellow, and subtle blue undertones. The proportions are balanced to deliver presence on the finger yet retain an understated elegance, an ideal candidate for a solitaire ring, a refined three stone composition, or a halo design that elevates its color with a surrounding of warm metals or white diamonds. The excellent polish and the stone maturity of cut enable reflections that appear almost like facets within facets, a quality admired by gemmologists and collectors alike because it enhances brilliance without sacrificing the soft, vintage influenced cushion outline. When set, this 0.57 carat cushion will command attention with a whisper rather than a shout, a jewel for someone who prefers distinction born of taste rather than display. The stone photographs beautifully in natural light, and when worn the color shifts subtly with the movement of the hand, a private spectacle that rewards both the wearer and those fortunate to glance its way.

More than an exceptional gem, this sapphire is an heirloom shaped by provenance and permanence, destined to carry stories across generations. Sapphire scores nine on the Mohs scale, a hardened beauty that withstands the rhythms of daily life and keeps its polish and form through decades of wear, making it perfectly suited to become a treasured family emblem.
