2.13 Ct. Yellowish Green Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A rare and luminous treasure from the storied mines of Ceylon, this transparent round yellowish green sapphire weighs 2.13 carats, a weight that immediately places it in the realm of premium gemstones, a size that reads as a considered investment and a visible statement when set into a ring or pendant. Cut to a mixed brilliant pattern, the stone measures 7.98 by 7.97 by 4.33 millimeters, proportions that are exceptionally well balanced for a round shape, allowing the gem to sit with confident poise on the hand, while maximizing its internal play of light. The color presents as yellowish green with a medium intense saturation, a tone that feels both fresh and timeless, evoking Mediterranean gardens and verdant royal garments, while the clarity is graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, meaning the gem offers near pristine transparency to the naked eye. With an excellent polish and a heat treatment enhancement that refines its natural color, this sapphire arrives with the provenance collectors and connoisseurs admire, supplied and authenticated by The Natural Sapphire Company.

To appreciate this sapphire is to travel back in time to the earliest chapters of gemstone lore, where the island of Ceylon was already famed for producing stones of exceptional character, coveted by monarchs and traders alike. Sapphires from Sri Lanka have graced crowns and talismans, they have been traded along ancient routes that connected kingdoms and cultures, and they have been prized for their resilience and beauty across centuries. This particular yellowish green hue carries that same sense of antiquity and legacy, a color that seems to shift subtly in different lights, revealing warm golden undertones and cool green depth in equal measure. Owning a gem with Ceylon origin is to own a piece of that lineage, to link a modern wearer to a long tradition of craftsmanship and reverence. The Natural Sapphire Company respects that history, and this stone has been selected to embody both the island origin and the enduring appeal of classic sapphire designs.

The 2.13 carat weight of this sapphire is central to its prestige, because carat size is both a measure of physical presence and of rarity, especially in round cuts with such excellent proportions. Stones in this weight range are large enough to be immediately admired, yet refined enough to retain elegance, making the gem versatile for both a solitary showpiece or a design that highlights classical settings. The mixed brilliant cut enhances the perceived depth while preserving scintillation, as the intricately arranged facets work together to reflect light with a lively brilliance. The dimensions of 7.98 by 7.97 by 4.33 millimeters translate into a face up that reads with comfortable authority on the finger, and the symmetry implied by the near identical length and width speaks to expert cutting. The clarity grade, noted as very very slightly included at the eye level, assures that what you see is a luminous body of color with inclusions that remain inconspicuous, supporting both the aesthetic purity and the gemological integrity of this sapphire.

Technical care and transparency of treatment are part of the heritage we preserve with each gem we offer, and this sapphire has been heat treated, a long established and stable enhancement that brings forward the stone's inherent color without compromising its durability. Heat treatment has been used for centuries in the trade to refine the visual qualities of sapphires from natural origins, and when combined with excellent polish, as seen on this piece, the result is a gem that sparkles with renewed clarity and an even, medium intense color that reads beautifully under natural and artificial light. The mixed brilliant faceting pattern provides a modern technical advantage, combining the fire of brilliant facets with the depth and layered reflection that creates that signature Ceylon glow. The precise measurements and careful cutting ensure that light behaves in a way that highlights both color saturation and inner life, while the excellent polish gives the surface a glasslike finish that is pleasing to both the eye and the touch.
