2.27 Ct. White Opal from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

If you are looking for a centerpiece that fulfills both the emotional wish for an unforgettable engagement ring and the collector desire for a rare, refined gemstone, this translucent 2.27 carat oval white topaz answers that call. This gem measures 9.01 by 6.93 by 4.82 mm, and its mixed brilliant cut maximizes fire and delivery of light. Clarity is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, color intensity is near colorless, and the polish is excellent, offering a crisp, bright face up that rivals many colorless stones. Enhancement by irradiation brings stable, even tone, and the graceful origin of Ceylon Sri Lanka gives it provenance collectors respect. We also note the opal type White Opal as a complementary offering for those seeking a softer, iridescent contrast. At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand your search for perfection, and this topaz is presented as the confident solution that completes the quest for beauty and durability.

Comparing hue and tone helps you place this gem among world class stones, and it is instructive to note differences. The near colorless hue of this white topaz is more restrained and versatile than the vivid cornflower blues often associated with Ceylon sapphires, yet it shares the same crystalline clarity and lively tone that collectors admire from Sri Lankan origins. Against Brazilian gems, such as the warm golden tones of Minas Gerais imperial topaz, this stone reads as cool and luminous, closer in spirit to a fine white zircon or a well cut near colorless sapphire than to warm colored topaz. Compared to Australian opal varieties, especially black opal with its dramatic play of color, the White Opal type is milky and soft, while this white topaz remains transparent and scintillating, offering diamond like brilliance without the high price. For buyers seeking an engagement stone that sits elegantly between classic diamonds and colored gems, this piece offers neutral tone, superior polish, and eye level clarity that ends the search. The Natural Gemstone Company stands ready to help you place this lovely Ceylon topaz into the perfect setting, ensuring your choice is both inspired and enduring.
