A Classic Blue Sapphire With a Soft Cushion Shape

This natural blue Ceylon sapphire combines the timeless appeal of a blue precious stone with the gently rounded corners of a cushion cut. Its balanced outline has a classic yet contemporary appearance, making it an attractive center stone for a custom sapphire engagement ring.

At 1.20 carats, the sapphire provides a noticeable presence without appearing overly large. Its VVS clarity and carefully polished facets help showcase the blue color and brilliance of this earth-sourced gemstone.

The stone has received heat treatment, which is clearly disclosed. It remains a natural sapphire formed within the earth and should not be confused with a lab-grown or synthetic gemstone.

What Could You Create With This Stone?

The sapphire’s 6.23 × 5.71 mm cushion outline works well with several classic and modern jewelry designs:

  • A four-prong cushion-cut sapphire solitaire ring
  • A blue sapphire halo engagement ring with natural diamond accents
  • A three-stone ring with round or pear-shaped side stones
  • A low-profile bezel setting for a contemporary jewelry design
  • A meaningful sapphire promise or anniversary ring
  • A bespoke blue sapphire pendant in white, yellow, or rose gold

White gold or platinum can emphasize the sapphire’s cool blue appearance. Yellow gold creates a timeless contrast, while rose gold can give the finished piece a softer and more romantic character.

Jewelry makers using a semimount setting should work from the complete 6.23 × 5.71 × 3.53 mm measurements rather than relying on an approximate size. Please contact Sapphire Pal if you would like additional photographs, videos, or help planning a bespoke jewelry design.
