1.84 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This oval shape yellow sapphire weighs 1.84 carat and is fully transparent, measuring 7.66 by 6.51 by 4.57 mm. The gem is cut as a mixed brilliant, combining a faceted crown with a precision brilliant pattern and a pavilion that balances light return with scintillation. The cutting proportions have been calibrated to optimize optical performance for the medium light color intensity, maintaining an even spread of hue across the table and girdle. The mixed brilliant style gives this stone a lively interplay of small and large facet reflections, producing a balanced combination of fire and brilliance while preserving weight efficiency and outline integrity for classic oval applications.

Color evaluation for this sapphire is medium light, with a clear yellow hue that reads pure and natural under standard daylight and controlled gemological lighting. The medium light intensity allows the yellow to remain appetizing and versatile for a variety of metal settings, and the careful faceting maximizes the perception of saturated zones without creating dead windows or dark areas. The crown and pavilion facet angles were selected to reinforce internal light recycling, so the stone presents consistent tone across viewing angles. The careful polishing of facet junctions and table plane results in crisp facet demarcation, allowing each facet to contribute cleanly to overall color dispersion and to the subtle flashes of spectral color that are characteristic of high quality corundum.

Clarity is graded as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the gem remains visually clean under normal viewing conditions. The cutter oriented the stone to minimize the visual impact of internal features, placing inclusions away from primary optical pathways and using facet orientation to disrupt direct sight lines to any internal irregularities. This approach leaves the visual effect essentially flawless to the unaided eye, while preserving natural material and weight. The excellent polish further enhances apparent clarity by reducing surface light scattering and by maintaining tight, even facet junctions. Because this sapphire is unenhanced, with no heat treatment or other modification, collectors and connoisseurs will appreciate its natural state and the transparency that showcases the intrinsic crystal structure and optical behavior of Ceylon origin material.

Origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source known for producing corundums with lively color and classic crystalline clarity. The fact that this sapphire has received no enhancement elevates its desirability for clients seeking natural provenance and untreated stones. From a setting and design perspective this oval mixed brilliant will perform exceptionally when mounted with an open table and minimal crown obstruction to exploit its brilliance, and it will also respond well to designs that balance light access with secure prong or bezel frameworks. The gemology and finishing quality that you expect from The Natural Sapphire Company are evident in this piece, with precise faceting, exacting polish and thoughtful orientation of inclusions all working together. The result is a sapphire whose flawless visual presentation enhances its beauty from every angle, providing consistent sparkle, even color distribution and a pristine face up appearance suitable for high end bespoke jewelry.
