1.47 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This heart shape yellow sapphire weighs 1.47 carat, and measures 6.58 by 7.41 by 4.17 millimeters, proportions that yield a depth to average diameter ratio of approximately 59.6 percent, a balance that supports strong light return while preserving face up color. The stone is cut as a mixed brilliant, with a brilliant style crown that disperses light into scintillation, and a pavilion constructed to enhance return rather than simply to add weight. The heart outline exhibits well executed lobes and a defined cleft, and symmetry is controlled to present an even table and a stable outline for bezel or prong mounting. Clarity is graded as very slightly included at eye level, indicating minor internal features that do not materially interrupt the stone s brilliance, and the surface finish is certified as excellent polish, producing clean facet junctions and crisp facet windows. Enhancement is heat treated, applied to refine tone and reduce masking inclusions, and origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source known for sapphires that combine lively color with good translucency.

Color is described as medium intense yellow, a saturation category that reads as rich and bold in practical terms, and this yellow is presented as a symbol of personal power and distinction through its balance of warmth and clarity. The mixed brilliant faceting is deliberately chosen to animate the medium intense hue, creating a lively interplay between flash and body color so that the stone reads vividly in both static viewing and in motion. Craftsmanship notes include attention to crown angle and pavilion depth to optimize return and to avoid color leakage, a gently faceted girdle to facilitate secure setting without unnecessary metal exposure, and a polished culet region that contributes to an even optical center. In practical jewelry design the heart shape at 1.47 carat suits solitaire rings, pendant centers, and bespoke cluster designs, and pairs particularly well with warm metals that reinforce the yellow character. The Natural Sapphire Company presents this transparent Ceylon yellow sapphire as a technically refined gem, combining precise cutting, measured proportions, and honest treatment disclosure, a piece for the buyer who values both the quantifiable aspects of gemcraft and the statement made by a bold, personal color.
