1.23 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exceptional transparent yellow sapphire from Ceylon is offered by The Natural Sapphire Company as a refined and wearable gem for collectors and for someone you want to honor with a memorable gift. Weighing 1.23 carats and measuring 6.68 by 5.74 by 3.33 mm, the stone is fashioned in a radiant shape that balances step and brilliant cutting styles to maximize both sparkle and face up color. The cut has been executed with excellent polish, producing crisp facet junctions and lively light return, which helps the light color intensity read as a fresh, sunny yellow that is elegant rather than overpowering. Origin from Sri Lanka contributes to its desirability, as Ceylon sapphires are prized for their pure, clear tones and historical reputation among connoisseurs, and this example is offered with no enhancement, which is an important distinction for educated buyers seeking natural, unheated material.

From a clarity and durability perspective this sapphire is graded very slightly included evaluated at eye level, meaning the stone reads clean to most viewers while retaining natural character under magnification, a quality that supports both beauty and value. As corundum, sapphire has a Mohs hardness of nine which makes it suitable for everyday wear, and the radiant cut further enhances durability by softening corner stress points while delivering a pleasing spread on the finger. For a thoughtful, striking gift this sapphire offers several advantages, the light yellow tone provides versatile styling with warm metals or platinum, the one point two three carat weight is noticeable without being cumbersome, and the untreated origin from Ceylon will appeal to recipients who appreciate provenance and natural gemology. At The Natural Sapphire Company we present this gem with technical transparency and a focus on what informed buyers value, making it an attractive choice for an engagement ring, a milestone anniversary, or a distinctive heirloom that will be cherished for generations.
