A 2.19 ct orange sapphire with a cushion outline, documented on GIA Report #2235922084. As printed on that report: Species Natural Corundum, Variety Sapphire, Shape Cushion, Color Orange-Yellow, Transparency Transparent, Additional Results Heated. GIA's colored-stone reports carry no color, clarity or cut grade, so every ranking of this stone's color, clarity or cut on this page is our own and is marked as such where it appears.
The report's Geographic Origin field reads Not Requested — origin testing was not ordered on this stone, so GIA names no country for it. Sri Lanka (Ceylon) is Crescent Gems' own record of where we bought the stone, not a GIA finding.
GIA's report carries exactly one comment. Quoted in full: "This stone passed GIA's color stability test." We do not interpret it further.
Expert Opinion
Ahmed Shareek's Assessment
"I buy on paper first. This report lists the color as Orange-Yellow and the Additional Results as Heated. Its Geographic Origin field reads Not Requested, so the report names no country for this stone — Sri Lanka is our own record of where we bought it. That is the whole of what the document says about this sapphire, and the document is what I would put in front of a buyer."
What the GIA Report Records
-
Species and variety: The report lists Species as Natural Corundum and Variety as Sapphire. "Orange sapphire" is our own description of the stone; the report's Variety field says Sapphire and nothing more.
-
Color: The report lists the color as Orange-Yellow — a single hyphenated field value naming both hues. It states no intensity, no qualifier and no color grade.
-
Shape and cutting style: The report lists Shape as Cushion, Cutting Style: Crown as Modified Brilliant Cut, and Cutting Style: Pavilion as Modified Step Cut. GIA publishes no definition of either Modified string, so we quote both and gloss neither.
-
Measurements and weight: The report lists 2.19 carats and 6.88 x 6.70 x 5.39 mm.
-
Treatment: The report's Additional Results field reads Heated. The stone has been heat treated. That is the finding as printed and we add nothing to it.
-
Geographic origin: The report's Geographic Origin field reads Not Requested. Origin testing was not ordered, so there is no lab opinion on origin for this stone in either direction.
-
What the report does not carry: No clarity grade, no cut grade, no color grade, and no statement of value or desirability. The clarity and color-intensity descriptions on this page are ours.
Buying Guidance
-
Read the report yourself: Check the carat weight, the measurements, the color field and the Additional Results field against Report #2235922084 rather than against this listing.
-
Look up the report number: GIA publishes a report-check service. A buyer who looks up #2235922084 will find Geographic Origin reading Not Requested, which is what this page says too.
-
Know which words are the lab's and which are ours: Orange-Yellow, Cushion, Modified Brilliant Cut, Modified Step Cut, Transparent and Heated are the report's field values. Orange, near-square, Loupe Clean and Medium Intense are ours.
-
Judge the color in your own light: GIA prints "Image is not to scale. Color is approximate." under its own photograph, so neither its image nor ours is a color finding. Ask for extra photographs or video under different light.
-
Try Before You Buy: Confirm the return terms so you can see the stone in hand before you commit.

About this 2.19 ct Orange Sapphire
This is a loose stone of 2.19 carats measuring 6.88 x 6.70 x 5.39 mm, which works out to a length-to-width ratio of about 1.03:1 — near-square, by our own arithmetic rather than from any report field. The report lists two cutting styles: a Modified Brilliant Cut crown over a Modified Step Cut pavilion. Brilliant-style faceting is cut to return light to the eye; step faceting is cut as a series of parallel facets. We describe the construction and leave any judgement of it to the buyer.
