From the ancient heart of Madagascar, where corundum crystals grow slowly within metamorphic rock, this delicate bluish green sapphire began its journey as a fragment of deep time. Hand found by local miners, it was gently separated from gravel and matrix, then passed through trusted hands at The Natural Sapphire Company for careful examination and ethical purchasing. At 0.26 carat with a round shape and precise dimensions of 3.94 x 3.92 x 2.37 mm, the rough crystal revealed a rare blend of blue and green, a hue described as medium light in color intensity that hints at oceanic and forest tones. Our master cutter chose a mixed brilliant cut to balance scintillation and depth, creating a dance of light across the table and crown, and an excellent polish that allows each facet to sing. Clarity is graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a characteristic that testifies to its natural origin while remaining beautifully transparent. This sapphire has been heat treated to gently enhance its color, a time honored practice that brings forward the stone s finest expression without masking its Malagasy soul.
Worn now or kept as an heirloom, this gem will continue to captivate for years because sapphire is one of the hardest and most enduring natural minerals on earth, resistant to scratches and daily wear. The mixed brilliant cut ensures lively sparkle under varied light, while the bluish green tone evolves subtly with different settings and skin tones, offering new moods with each glance. Whether set as the heart of a delicate ring, the center of an antique inspired pendant, or the accent in a bespoke design, this sapphire promises quiet resilience and growing affection. At The Natural Sapphire Company we pair each gem with provenance and careful documentation, and our craftsmen are available to advise on settings that protect and showcase the stone. This sapphire is more than a jewel, it is a story that travels with you, a compact witness to place and time that will gain meaning with every year it is loved.
