18.20 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are gems that carry the weight of centuries in their color and form, and this 18.20 carat yellow sapphire is one of those rare treasures. Hailing from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a cradle of gemstone lore and a source of some of the world most revered sapphires, this stone evokes the long lineage of royal jewels and sacred talismans. The radiant cut, executed with an excellent polish, combines classical geometry with brilliant faceting to produce a lively play of light that feels both timeless and immediate. Its transparent body, intense golden hue, and natural, unenhanced origin make it a pure expression of nature, a gem that would have been at home in ancient courts and remains a distinguished choice for collectors and connoisseurs today.

What sets this sapphire apart as a true statement piece is its size and clarity, dimensions 15.58 by 11.50 by 10.23 mm, and a clarity grade of very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level. At 18.20 carats its presence is commanding without being overwhelming, a balance rarely achieved in larger colored stones. The intense color intensity ensures visibility and depth, while the very very slightly included clarity allows the light to travel and scintillate, creating a jewel that reads as both bold and refined. With no enhancement recorded, this sapphire offers authenticity and permanence, an investment in beauty that will age with dignity. The Natural Sapphire Company is proud to present this radiant yellow sapphire as an emblem of heritage and style, ideal for a single stone ring, a grand pendant, or a signature cocktail piece that will be passed down as a family heirloom.
