1.00 Ct. Yellowish Orange Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A small sun held in a squared embrace, this transparent 1.00 carat princess shape yellowish orange sapphire measures 5.88 x 5.86 x 3.28 mm, its facets cut with precision into a princess cut that dances with geometry and light. The stone arrives with a clarity grade of very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a testament to Ceylon origin and the quiet perfection that comes from centuries of skilled lapidary tradition. Intense color intensity floods every pavilion and table, while an excellent polish allows each facet to sing with brilliance, so that the gem seems to glow from within like embers caught in amber. This sapphire is beryllium diffused, an enhancement we disclose openly, bringing forth a warmth and depth that is as natural to the heart as the sunrise over a tropical sea.

Imagine this jewel set at the center of a story, its warm hues translated into gold and light by master hands. Against buttery yellow gold the yellowish orange tones deepen and melt into a continuous flame, while a rose gold embrace makes the sapphire feel like a private sunset. Set in platinum or white gold the color stands proud, a vivid beacon framed by cool metal for a modern, architectural statement. The princess cut, with its clean lines and crisp corners, lends itself beautifully to a wide range of settings, from the classic four prong solitaire that celebrates the stone alone, to a halo that multiplies its fire, to a bezel that protects its sharp angles while giving the piece a smooth contemporary silhouette. The precise dimensions and excellent polish also make this sapphire an ideal candidate for invisible channel settings, for pairs of matched stones in stud earrings, and for a striking east west bar pendant where geometry and color converse.

At The Natural Sapphire Company our artisans love to imagine this Ceylon sapphire reborn in countless forms, each one tailored to the life it will lead. Picture it as the heart of an engagement ring, set high in a cathedral mount to catch every passing sunbeam, or nested in a vintage inspired filigree band that whispers of heirlooms and promises. See it as two companion stones for a three stone ring, flanked by white diamonds to set off its orange glow, or as part of a bespoke cufflink or signet for a modern gentleman who favors color with restraint. Consider a delicate bezel pendant for daily wear, or a bold tension set for someone who prefers the dramatic and unexpected. Our team can design mixed metal settings, pavé shoulders to add subtle sparkle, secure V prongs to protect the corners, or a flush setting for an urban minimal look. We can advise on the best mount to balance protection and light, and we will happily create sketches and CAD renderings so you can envision the finished jewel. Let this princess cut sapphire from Ceylon be your muse, a warm and intense promise waiting to be shaped into a timeless piece, by The Natural Sapphire Company, crafted with care, honesty, and a touch of magic.
