This exceptional yellowish green sapphire of 2.26 carat presents an opportunity to own a truly rare and distinguished gem, a piece suited to those who seek exclusivity and enduring beauty. In the world of natural sapphires, weight is a defining measure of rarity, and a stone of this size, with vivid color intensity and no enhancements, occupies a special place in any curated collection. At 2.26 carat, this oval shaped sapphire is considerably larger than the more common under two carat examples, and that additional weight amplifies its presence, market desirability, and long term value. The Natural Sapphire Company offers this gem as part of a limited selection of untreated stones, so owning this sapphire is not only an aesthetic choice, but participation in an elite circle of collectors and connoisseurs who appreciate provenance and purity.
The proportions and cutting of this gem further elevate its appeal, with dimensions of 7.75 by 6.89 by 4.71 mm that deliver an ideal balance between face up spread and depth. The mixed brilliant cut gives the pavilion sparkle and the crown scintillation that allow the vivid yellowish green hue to breathe and move, creating lively flashes while maintaining a solid, desirable color when viewed directly. Clarity is an essential factor in assessing value, and this stone is graded eye clean evaluated at eye level, meaning that at normal viewing distances the stone appears pristine, free from visible inclusions that would detract from its brilliance. The excellent polish enhances light return and surface finish, ensuring that the gem performs beautifully both in intimate lighting and sunlight.
Origin is a fundamental element of rarity and story, and this sapphire hails from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region celebrated for producing some of the world most cherished sapphires. Ceylon sapphires are renowned for their luminous saturation and unique color ranges, and an untreated, vivid yellowish green example of this weight is a rare find. The absence of enhancement further increases desirability and market value, because untreated stones convey geological authenticity and long term stability. In practical terms, the premium per carat typically rises with weight, and when combined with vivid natural color and an eye clean clarity grade, the overall rarity curve steepens significantly. For the collector seeking a centerpiece gem or for the client commissioning a bespoke creation, this sapphire represents a strategic and emotional acquisition that will stand apart from mass produced alternatives.
The Natural Sapphire Company presents this stone as a bespoke offering, reserved for clients who value exclusivity and provenance. Availability of untreated sapphires of this weight and quality is extremely limited, and each piece we sell is chosen for its ability to perform both as a wearable treasure and as a long term asset. We invite serious collectors and discerning clients to inquire about viewing options and custom settings, so that this exceptional 2.26 carat oval yellowish green sapphire can be set into a design that honors its scale and character. Owning this sapphire means joining a small group of owners who hold a rare, unenhanced gem from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a stone whose weight, clarity, and vivid color together create a level of rarity that is increasingly difficult to find.
