2.64 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

You are encountering a rare example of nature refined through expert craftsmanship, a transparent 2.64 carat cushion shape yellow sapphire that stands apart for its clarity, cut, and provenance. Offered exclusively by The Natural Sapphire Company, this stone measures 9.15 x 7.79 x 4.24 mm, and features a mixed brilliant cut that balances classical form with modern sparkle. The clarity has been graded very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, delivering a near pristine face up appearance that allows light to travel freely through the gem, while the light color intensity reveals a gentle, luminous yellow that warms the complexion without overwhelming it. The sapphire has received excellent polish, enhancing its surface smoothness and reflective qualities, and has undergone thoughtful heat treatment to stabilize and enhance its inherent beauty. Sourced from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, an origin celebrated for producing some of the world finest sapphires, this gem carries both geographic prestige and a story of careful selection. We present this sapphire not as a commodity, but as a limited opportunity to own an item that few will ever have, a gem reserved for discerning collectors and connoisseurs who value rarity, provenance, and timeless elegance.

The optical presence of this cushion yellow sapphire is quietly commanding, a quality that makes it remarkably versatile for a wide array of settings. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to maximize scintillation and return of light, producing flashes of white brilliance and subtle fire as the stone moves. Against casual attire, the stone offers a refined accent, catching sunlight and artificial light with equal grace, lending an air of considered style to everyday looks. In formal circumstances, the same stone transforms, its cushion silhouette and well balanced proportions conveying sophistication and gravitas. The light color intensity allows the gem to sit harmoniously alongside diamonds and other colored stones, and its transparency supports a depth of appearance that reads as both luxurious and approachable. Because the clarity is graded very very slightly included at eye level, the face up view is largely free from visible distractions, ensuring the yellow tone reads pure and appetizing. For those who wish to own a piece that adapts effortlessly from day to night, from relaxed gatherings to black tie events, this sapphire is a rare specimen that fulfills that promise with subtlety and strength.

Beyond the stone itself, there is an opportunity to create something truly bespoke, a piece that will be as individual as the person who wears it. At The Natural Sapphire Company we invite private consultations to explore settings that elevate the cushion shape and mixed brilliant cut, whether the vision is a classic solitaire, a vintage inspired halo, or a modern bespoke design combining contrasting metals. A yellow sapphire of this caliber pairs beautifully with warm metals, such as 18 karat yellow gold, where the metal enhances the sunny hue, and it also presents a striking contrast in platinum or white gold, where the cool metal tone serves to heighten the gem presence. Design considerations are many, and each choice alters the personality of the finished piece, turning the sapphire into an heirloom quality item that speaks to individual taste. Limited availability means that when this gem is chosen for a commission, it becomes the centerpiece of a truly unique creation, a single example that will not be replicated. Ownership is therefore an invitation to join an elite group of collectors and patrons who seek rarity, provenance, and impeccable gem quality in every decision.

We stand ready to assist with every aspect of acquiring this exceptional cushion yellow sapphire, from detailed imagery and magnified reports to private viewings and bespoke design consultations. The Natural Sapphire Company will provide the full background on origin, treatment, and the expert evaluation that supports the stone description, ensuring transparency and confidence in your purchase. Long term care is straightforward, with professional cleaning and occasional inspection recommended to maintain the excellent polish and structural integrity of the setting. For those who value both beauty and discretion, this gem is an investment in personal legacy as much as it is a statement of refined taste. Because pieces of this nature are rare and carefully curated, we encourage early engagement to avoid disappointment, and we will tailor the acquisition experience to your schedule and preferences. Owning this 2.64 carat cushion yellow sapphire is more than possessing a jewel, it is claiming a place among a select few who recognize and act on opportunities to secure truly exceptional natural beauty.
