0.49 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Madagascar

As a gem specialist at The Natural Sapphire Company, I present a rare and refined treasure, a transparent 0.49 carat pear shape blue sapphire that reads like a private commission, not a mass produced item. With precise dimensions of 6.17 x 4.25 x 2.62 mm this gem occupies the sweet spot between wearable elegance and visual impact, delivering a face up presence that is unmistakable in a solitaire ring or a tailored pendant. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish work together to maximize sparkle and life, while the very very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, ensures the clean, luminous look of a high end statement piece. The intense color intensity radiates a deep, commanding blue that is enhanced by careful heat treatment and traces its origin to the storied deposits of Madagascar, giving this stone an exotic provenance that will resonate with collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Owning this sapphire places you among a select group who appreciate the marriage of precise craftsmanship and natural beauty, a bespoke experience that The Natural Sapphire Company curates for discerning clients. The pear silhouette flatters the hand by visually elongating the finger and lends itself to imaginative settings, from a minimalist east west mount to an opulent halo that frames the intense blue for maximum presence. Because of its clarity and cut, this gem returns light with an exceptional balance of fire and depth, making it ideal as a primary focus in an engagement piece or as the centerpiece of a signature cocktail ring. Enhancement by heat is a stable and traditional treatment that deepens the hue while preserving the gem and its structural integrity. Availability of stones like this is limited, and we source only the finest examples that meet our exacting standards, so this sapphire is more than an accessory, it is a discreet emblem of rarity and taste. Reach out to The Natural Sapphire Company to reserve a private viewing or to discuss a custom setting, and allow us to bring this distinguished blue sapphire into a bespoke creation that will be treasured for generations.
