0.98 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Blue Sapphire Pair from Madagascar

A pair of pear shaped blue sapphires, each weighing 0.49 carats, arrives like a midnight refrain, taken from the wild heart of Madagascar and given shape by human hands. Their mixed brilliant cut faceting is a deliberate choreography of planes and angles, each facet polished to an excellent finish, allowing a steady choreography of light to enter and return with stories. The dark color intensity gives these stones a deep, oceanic voice, while their transparency and very very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, keep that voice clear and true. Heat treated to enhance their innate depth, these sapphires measure 6.07 by 3.93 by 2.49 millimeters, and 6.06 by 4.05 by 2.78 millimeters, dimensions that give them graceful pear silhouettes, slender at one end and generous at the other, lending themselves to settings that celebrate both elegance and intimacy.

Held to the light, the mixed brilliant cut reveals its secret, every tiny table and pavilion facet coaxing scintillating flashes and velvety flashes in turn, like moonbeams pooling and then retreating across a dark lake. The high polish plays as an artist, smoothing transitions between brightness and shade, so each movement of the hand summons a new constellation from within the stone. The result is not merely sparkle, it is a private meteor shower, a slow and deliberate performance that suits engagements, promises, and moments meant to be kept close. At The Natural Sapphire Company we have paired these sapphires to mirror each other, a matched duet ready to be set as earrings, side stones, or twin tokens of a pledged heart. Their small, exact forms make them ideal companions for delicate designs, yet their intense color and expert faceting ensure that they will command attention, casting deep blue light with clarity and purpose, carrying with them the romance of Madagascar nights and the precision of masterful cutting.
