This transparent 0.43 carat cushion shaped blue sapphire measures 4.14 x 3.33 x 2.79 mm, and is fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut to balance sparkle and depth. The gem displays a medium intense blue color, and an excellent polish that enhances surface luster and facet contrast. Clarity is graded slightly included, evaluated at eye level, with natural internal characteristics that are visible only upon close inspection and that contribute to the stone character without compromising overall brilliance. This sapphire is natural and untreated, with no enhancement, and its documented origin is Tanzania. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, the stone offers reliable gemological specifications suitable for fine settings where a compact, high quality blue sapphire is desired.
Beyond its material attributes, this Tanzanian sapphire is associated with traditional metaphysical and healing properties that many collectors and practitioners value. Sapphires are historically linked with mental clarity, calm focus, and discernment, and this medium intense blue specimen is often described as supportive for thoughtful communication and steadying of the mind. Practitioners who work with crystal energy commonly use blue sapphires to encourage concentration during study, to aid in clear expression in personal and professional contexts, and to foster integrity and wise decision making. On an emotional level, the stone is said to soothe anxiety and promote inner balance, offering a stabilizing influence that complements its visual coolness. Physically oriented healing beliefs attribute to blue sapphire a role in supporting throat and respiratory functions, and in aligning energies for improved vocal expression, though such uses are complementary and not a substitute for medical care. For those who value provenance and natural state, the lack of enhancement and the Tanzanian origin add to the appeal, providing a transparent narrative about the gem history that aligns with mindful wearing and intentional use.
