1.08 Ct. Greenish Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This 1.08 carat round greenish yellow sapphire from Ceylon is engineered to deliver precise optical performance. Measuring 5.85 by 5.80 by 4.61 millimeters, the stone is fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut that pairs a well proportioned brilliant crown with a modified pavilion geometry to optimize both scintillation and color delivery. The crown facets are arranged to maximize small scale flash while the pavilion facet set has been calibrated to return light evenly through the table, producing balanced brilliance across the face of the gem. The table size and crown height are tuned to the medium intense color intensity, so the greenish yellow hue reads consistently under varied lighting. Clarity is graded slightly included at eye level, with minute internal features that do not disrupt light transmission or compromise structural integrity. Polish is excellent, facet junctions are crisp, and overall symmetry is tight, which together preserve sharp reflections and high luster. No enhancement has been applied to this natural sapphire, and the unheated origin from Sri Lanka contributes to a pure tone and natural saturation prized by connoisseurs.

The combination of precise cutting, superior polish, and natural transparency creates a visual impression of near flawless performance from every viewing angle, a signature we stand behind at The Natural Sapphire Company. As light enters the crown it is refracted and modulated by the mixed brilliant pavilion, producing controlled flashes and a stable central brightness that highlights the stone color without windowing or dark zones. The slightly included clarity grade is visually discreet due to strategic facet placement and high polish, so on the finger the gem appears exceptionally clean and lively. At the girdle and in profile the pavilion facets form crisp mirrored planes that enhance contrast and give the sapphire a lively pattern under movement. For settings the stone benefits from open prong or low bezel designs that allow maximum light access to the crown, while the excellent polish maintains a sharp, reflective silhouette. This sapphire represents a technically refined example of Sri Lankan gemmaking, where facet architecture, proportion control, and uncompromised surface finishing converge to elevate the gem beyond its material grade, producing consistent beauty from every angle.
