1.12 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There is a little sun captured in this cushion of color, a warm, private glow that waits to be worn and cherished. This yellow sapphire weighs 1.12 carats, a weight that speaks softly but with authority, a jewel just beyond the familiar milestone that catches the eye and the heart. Its cushion shape carries a gentle silhouette that sits like a sigh on the hand, and its mixed brilliant cut scatters light with a lively, romantic pulse. The gem measures 6.08 by 6.01 by 3.62 millimeters, proportions that lend both presence and grace, and its vivid color intensity reads like a summer dawn, saturated yet clear. At The Natural Sapphire Company we present this stone as a testament to nature and craft, its excellent polish ensuring every facet whispers with clarity, while its transparent beauty opens to a gaze that finds only very very slight inclusions, evaluated at eye level, which only confirm its natural origin and singularity.

Weight is the secret language of rarity and value in gemstones, a quiet arithmetic that elevates a gem from pretty to precious. At 1.12 carats this sapphire carries more than a number, it carries density of hue and a sense of permanence. Every extra fraction of a carat measurably reduces the frequency with which such a stone is found, and in yellow sapphires from Ceylon, that scarcity is felt as a premium on both color and character. The extra weight deepens the saturation, allowing the vivid yellow to glow from within rather than sit merely on the surface, and the mixed brilliant cut amplifies that inner fire, splitting light into a honeyed chorus. Clarity graded as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, assures you of a clean window into the gem, while the excellent polish creates mirrorbrilliance that carries each ray like a promise. This sapphire has been heat treated, a widely accepted enhancement that stabilizes and refines the tone, a gentle intervention that honors the gem’s soul without erasing the hand of the earth that formed it.

Imagine this cushion sapphire set into a ring, a pendant, a secret token held against a pulse, and you will understand how the 1.12 carat weight translates into everyday enchantment. On the finger the dimensions balance intimacy and impact, a stone that commands attention without shouting, a golden ember cradled by metal and memory. Origin matters to lovers of provenance, and Ceylon, Sri Lanka, provides a lineage of sapphires known for their purity of color and the soft, sunlit quality that makes them feel like heirlooms before they are ever handed down. Pair this gem with warm yellow gold to deepen its honeyed glow, or with white metal to let its vivid color leap forward, either approach honoring the natural song within. At The Natural Sapphire Company we believe that weight is more than measurement, it is the weight of a promise, a rarity that makes the stone not only beautiful but meaningful. If you seek a piece that reads like a chapter in a lifelong story, this 1.12 carat Ceylon yellow sapphire waits to be set, to be celebrated, to become the nightly light you reach for when you remember why you fell in love.
