Chromium and vanadium interact within the corundum crystal to produce a colour that cannot be replicated through any treatment process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt just over two carats with generous 8.77 x 6.35 mm proportions, this oval mixed cut sapphire delivers substantial visual presence. The unheated status is significant, this sapphire has not undergone any heat treatment, preserving the complex bi-colour interplay exactly as nature created it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrigin \u0026amp; Certification\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis sapphire originates from Ceylon (Sri Lanka), the only source consistently producing sapphires with this distinctive purple-pink bi-colour character. The geological conditions of Sri Lanka’s gem-bearing gravels create the precise trace element chemistry responsible for these unusual colour combinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arctic Gem Certification Laboratory (AGCL) has confirmed its natural origin, unheated status, and purple pink colour on the accompanying certificate. Heat treatment would alter the delicate balance of purple and pink tones, so the unheated designation confirms this bi-colour character is entirely natural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy This Purple Pink Sapphire\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBi-colour sapphires appeal to buyers seeking something genuinely different, a stone that cannot be easily compared or categorised. This makes them compelling for bespoke engagement rings and statement jewellery where individuality matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt $2,800 AUD for a 2.01ct unheated bi-colour Ceylon sapphire, this stone represents collector-grade value. Comparable purple pink sapphires from Ceylon with unheated certification are difficult to source. The oval cut is the most versatile shape for jewellery settings, suitable for solitaire rings, halo designs, pendants, and earrings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelated:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pink-sapphire\"\u003eBrowse our full Ceylon Pink \u0026amp; Purple Sapphire collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ceylon-purple-sapphire-1ct-heart-unheated\"\u003eCompare: 1ct Unheated Purple Sapphire Heart\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs this purple pink sapphire heated?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This sapphire is completely unheated and untreated. Its purple pink bi-colour is entirely natural, as confirmed by the AGCL certificate. Unheated sapphires are rare. Fewer than 5% reach the market without heat treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat causes the purple pink colour in sapphire?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour results from chromium (producing pink) and vanadium (contributing violet-purple) within the corundum crystal. When both trace elements are present in specific concentrations, the sapphire displays a bi-colour effect. This combination occurs naturally in a small percentage of Ceylon sapphires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs a bi-colour sapphire suitable for an engagement ring?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. The 8.77 x 6.35 mm oval dimensions suit solitaire, halo, and three-stone settings. Sapphires rate 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. Second only to diamond.
