4.10 Ct. Yellow Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This beautiful, Other certified Vivid Yellow, 4.10 carat heart shape yellow sapphire from Ceylon, Sri Lanka is a rare combination of intense color, clean transparency, and superior cut, dimensions 8.80 by 10.62 by 6.17 millimeters, mixed brilliant cut, clarity grade very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, excellent polish, heat treated enhancement. Compared to many yellow gems on the market this stone stands apart, because its vivid color intensity is closer to that of rare natural yellow sapphires rather than common citrine or treated topaz, and its natural corundum hardness of nine offers long term durability and everyday wearability that softer alternatives cannot match. In a market where many yellows appear washed out at smaller sizes, this 4.10 carat heart presents saturated, evenly distributed color and lively brilliance, making it a stronger value than similarly priced stones that rely on heavy treatments or synthetic origins. The heart shape is expertly faceted to maximize sparkle and light return, creating a warm golden flash that reads as both elegant and playful, ideal for buyers who want an emotionally resonant center stone with serious gem quality.

For custom work The Natural Sapphire Company recommends design pairings that enhance the vivid yellow while creating balanced contrast and brilliance. For a classic, high value look surround this heart with white brilliant diamonds as a halo and shoulders, the white contrast will amplify the yellow tone and increase overall brilliance, set in yellow gold for a seamless warm glow, or in platinum or white gold for a contemporary, crisp contrast. For a fashion forward palette pair the yellow heart with small pink sapphires or padparadscha accents to introduce a sunset gradient, or use deep blue Ceylon sapphires for a dramatic complementary contrast that makes the yellow appear richer. For a vibrant three stone ring consider green tsavorites or emeralds flanking the heart to evoke botanical luxury, or use tapered baguettes in white diamond for an elongated, elegant profile. For pendants and delicate rings choose a low bezel or secure prong setting to protect the cleft of the heart while allowing light to pass through the mixed brilliant facets. This sapphire offers exceptional presence and provenance, making it a superior choice for collectors and romantic commissions who want natural origin, vivid color, and enduring value from The Natural Sapphire Company.
