2.00 Ct. Topaz from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the heart of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, where monsoon winds shape the earth and centuries of gem cutting craft have been handed down, comes this transparent blue topaz, a 2.00 carat, emerald cut shape that measures 8.13 x 6.15 x 4.41 mm. The stone began its journey as rough crystal, weighed and selected for color potential, then was gently transformed by a lapidary who emphasized symmetry and brilliance. A checkerboard cut on the crown catches light in a lively mosaic, while the emerald cut outline gives the gem a refined architectural presence. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the medium intense color intensity sits between calm and vivid, offering an approachable yet unmistakable blue. The polish is excellent, the facets are crisp, and the color has been enhanced by irradiation to reveal an even, stable tone, a treatment commonly used to bring out the best in natural topaz. At The Natural Gemstone Company we honor the stone's origin and craftsmanship by documenting its Sri Lankan provenance, and by presenting it as a gem that carries both a geological story and human artistry.

Imagine this blue topaz set as the centerpiece of a custom piece, framed by small white diamonds to amplify sparkle and to lift the cool blue into a luminous halo, or paired with soft peach morganite for a romantic warm contrast that makes the blue appear fresher. For a bolder design, flank the emerald shape with tapered baguette diamonds along the shoulders for an elegant Art Deco inspired ring, or alternate small tsavorite garnets for a jewel tone contrast that sings against the topaz. In a pendant, a simple platinum bezel will emphasize clarity and color, while a rose gold prong setting will add warmth and vintage charm. For earrings, mirror matched pairs with pavé diamond surrounds will scatter light with every turn of the head, and for a cocktail ring consider adding a micro halo of champagne diamonds to introduce a subtle golden glow. Whether mounted in white gold, platinum, yellow gold, or rose gold, this Sri Lankan blue topaz will pair beautifully with both colorless and colored accents, making it a versatile focal point for a bespoke design from The Natural Gemstone Company.
