2.54 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are stones that catch the eye, and there are stones that seem to hold entire sunrises within their heart, and this cushion shaped yellow sapphire from Ceylon belongs to the latter. Weighing 2.54 carats, and measuring 8.28 by 5.90 by 5.08 mm, this transparent jewel sits like a bottled dawn, alive with an intense color that feels both warm and luminous. Cut in a mixed brilliant style, each facet has been balanced to coax out fire and depth, and an excellent polish allows the light to glide across its surface like a poem set to motion. The clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a small and honest signature of nature that only serves to remind the beholder of the gem s origin in the rich soils of Sri Lanka. There has been no enhancement, the color is wholly natural, a testament to the earth s patient alchemy, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we cherish that purity, presenting this stone as an unaltered gift from Ceylon to your hands.

Imagine it in sunlight, catching rays and scattering gold, and imagine it beneath evening lamps, turning soft and honeyed like candlelight, the same gem wearing both day and night with ease. Its cushion silhouette is timeless and modern at once, a versatile canvas that invites imagination, whether set alone as a solitaire that whispers subtlety, or embraced by a halo that sings with added brilliance. For casual moments, picture it in a slender, low profile setting that lets it rest close to the skin, a private talisman of warmth and optimism. For formal occasions, see it elevated in a refined halo or classic prong mount, where the mixed brilliant cut sends shimmering tongues of light into the room, commanding a hush without demanding it. The stone s dimensions deliver presence without overpowering, offering a conversation between proportion and personality that sits comfortably on a finger, at a pendant s heart, or as the centerpiece of a bespoke creation.

This yellow sapphire is more than a decorative token, it is an emblem of stories yet to be told, of promises wrapped in sunlight, and of moments that ask to be remembered. Its natural, untreated provenance makes it an honest companion for vows, for anniversaries, for the everyday grace of someone who loves color and life. Consider pairing it with warm yellow gold to amplify its solar glow, with rose gold to invite a whisper of romance, or with palladium or white gold to let the yellow read as a refined accent against cool metal. Our gem specialists at The Natural Sapphire Company can advise on settings that protect the stone while revealing its full expressive beauty, since the cushion form and mixed brilliant facets respond with unique personality to every design. If you seek a gem that moves seamlessly from a garden afternoon to a candlelit evening, that balances the spirited with the sophisticated, and that carries the honest story of Ceylon s earth in every facet, this 2.54 carat cushion yellow sapphire is a luminous invitation to make a memory tangible.
