A Ceylon sapphire of 1.89 carats, with a GIA report confirming Sri Lankan origin. The color is a clean, classical blue with a soft violet cast — the shade that has made Ceylon the reference point for fine blue sapphire. The stone is bright and lively, holding its color evenly across the face without darkening at the center, and the oval modified brilliant cut suits it well. Heated, the standard and universally accepted treatment for blue sapphire.
