1.96 Ct. Greenish Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This gemstone began its journey deep within the time worn soils of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, where skilled miners have long known how to coax beauty from the earth. From the stream cuttings an exceptional greenish yellow sapphire emerged, transparent and alive with color, weighing 1.96 carat and measuring 8.88 x 6.94 x 3.73 mm. At The Natural Sapphire Company we entrusted this rough to cutters who honored its natural character, shaping it into a graceful oval with a mixed brilliant cut that brings both lively scintillation and a refined face up presence. The cutter preserved the stone s clarity, delivering a gem graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and given an excellent polish to maximize light return. Importantly this sapphire has no enhancement, its intense color intensity and pure origin intact, a direct and honest link from the Ceylon earth to the finished jewel.

When set in jewelry this sapphire s vibrant greenish yellow will immediately command attention, its unique hue offering extraordinary versatility and striking contrast with any metal or complementary gem. In a warm yellow gold setting the stone s tones will sing, deepening the green notes and creating a luminous vintage feel, while in white gold or platinum the gem will read as a modern statement, its intense color floating above a cool backdrop. The mixed brilliant cut produces a lively play of light, ensuring the 1.96 carat oval dazzles as a solitaire ring or anchors a delicate pendant, and the stone s measured proportions and excellent polish make it equally suitable for classic halo designs or bespoke settings where side stones accentuate rather than overwhelm. The combination of transparent clarity, intense color, and no enhancement means this sapphire will age gracefully, remaining resilient and remarkable in daily wear or for special occasions. At The Natural Sapphire Company we celebrate stones that tell a story, and this Ceylon greenish yellow sapphire carries the narrative of place, care, and human craftsmanship, ready to be set into a piece that reflects its wearer s taste and the long journey from mine to masterpiece.
