A rare heart shape yellow sapphire from Ceylon, this gem is a singular offering for the discerning collector who seeks something both intimate and extraordinary. We present a transparent 0.98 carat heart shape sapphire measuring 5.71 by 6.47 by 3.76 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style that captures and returns light with lively, scintillating flashes. The color is vivid and radiant, a warm golden yellow that reads as joy and sunshine on the skin, and the polish is excellent, lending each facet clean, crisp reflections. At The Natural Sapphire Company we curate only the most evocative offerings, and this piece is a quiet declaration of scarcity, an heirloom quality stone with presence and personality that will not be easily replicated.

Up close, the heart form reveals the thoughtful balance between romantic silhouette and gemstone performance, every curve and facet aligned to maximize fire and brilliance. The mixed brilliant cut combines a crisp table and crown with precisely angled pavilion facets, allowing this sapphire to glow from within and scatter lively light at every movement. Clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means that the inclusions are minimal and do not detract from the gem s overall transparency or sparkle, they simply mark the stone as a natural creation with character. This sapphire has been lattice diffused to intensify its golden hue, a widely practiced enhancement that permeates the lattice and produces the vivid color you see, and this treatment is fully disclosed so you may make an informed choice. Origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source with a storied history of producing sapphires of exceptional tone and character, linking this gem to centuries of gemogical prestige.

Consider this heart shaped yellow sapphire as an engagement gem for the couple who values individuality over convention, and sentiment over trend. At just under one carat this 0.98 carat stone offers an elegant balance between presence and wearability, perfect for a single solitaire setting that centers the heart motif, or as the focal point embraced by delicate accent stones in a bespoke mounting. The golden hue reads as optimistic and nurturing, a color that symbolizes warmth and a bright future, making it particularly resonant for a promise of lifelong partnership. For the buyer seeking exclusivity, a lattice diffused Ceylon sapphire of this specific weight and cut is uncommon, making each setting an expression of a unique narrative rather than a mass produced choice. Our clients often commission custom designs around such singular stones, pairing the heart shape with vintage inspired halos, modern bezel frames, or asymmetric bands that elevate the sapphire s intimate geometry.
