1.11 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine holding a small sun captured in a perfect oval, a jewel that seems to hum with warmth and promise. This 1.11 carat Ceylon yellow sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company does more than sparkle, it reaches into the heart and makes a memory. Its medium intense golden hue invites joy, its clarity invites trust, and its very presence inspires a smile that lasts. When given as a gift, this gem will become a living story, a radiant reminder of a moment when love was celebrated, a milestone honored, or a promise made. The stone has been carefully heat treated to reveal its most candid color and clarity, and the result is a bright and luminous yellow that carries the timeless spirit of Sri Lanka, where its journey began.

Look closely and you will discover the unmistakable signature that makes this sapphire truly personal. The gemstone measures 6.25 x 5.88 x 3.50 millimeters in an elegant oval shape, and its mixed brilliant cut has been fashioned to maximize fire and depth. Under magnification small, delicate inclusions become a part of its charm, tiny crystalline pinpoints and silken veils that shimmer like threads of light. These features do not distract, they authenticate. They speak to the gem natural origin, they affirm that this is a living mineral formed under earth and time. Evaluated at eye level the clarity is described as very very slightly included, a grade that combines transparency with character, and the excellent polish ensures every facet flashes with clarity and life as the stone moves.

For a contrasting pairing that heightens drama and emotion, imagine this yellow sapphire set alongside a Semi-Black Opal. The deep, dark body tone of a Semi-Black Opal provides the perfect stage for the sapphire to sing, its sunny brilliance floating above a backdrop of inky color play. Together they create a conversation between fire and light, between the warm golden glow of the sapphire and the mystical flashes of color from the opal. Whether you are designing an heirloom ring, a pendant that will be worn close to the heart, or a bespoke cocktail piece for special evenings, the combination is modern and timeless, bold and intimate. At The Natural Sapphire Company we can help you select or design settings that complement both gems, enhancing their natural inclusions so they tell one shared story.

Let this Ceylon yellow sapphire be the spark for a memory that will carry for generations. The Natural Sapphire Company curates each stone with care, and we celebrate the inclusions and nuances that make each gem one of a kind. If you desire a setting that honors the warmth of the stone, or if you wish to see how it looks beside a Semi-Black Opal, we stand ready to collaborate with you. Our team can provide bespoke design notes, setting recommendations, and guidance on how to care for a heated sapphire so it retains its glow through years of wear. This sapphire is more than a jewel, it is a joyful statement, a living keepsake that will mark the moments we hope to never forget, and it is waiting to become a part of your story.
