This transparent 0.72 carat pear shape blue sapphire from Tanzania offered by The Natural Sapphire Company combines precise proportions and gemological integrity, making it an excellent choice for the educated buyer. The stone measures 5.56 x 5.74 x 3.08 mm and is cut in a mixed brilliant style to maximize both brilliance and color distribution, while the polish has been graded excellent for crisp facet junctions and lively light return. Clarity is very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which presents as minor features that do not detract from the gem when set, preserving both visual appeal and durability. The color is described as vivid intensity, a deep and saturated blue that is free of heating or other treatments, as this sapphire has no enhancement, and its natural origin from Tanzania adds provenance that many collectors and connoisseurs value for trace element profiles and geological significance.
From a design perspective this vivid blue pear shapes offers exceptional versatility in jewelry and flatters a wide range of skin tones. On fair complexions the saturated blue produces a striking contrast that enhances both the gem and the wearer, creating a crisp cool effect. For medium and warm skin tones the blue can read as rich and regal, harmonizing with warm undertones while maintaining clarity and depth, particularly when set in yellow gold or a warm rose gold bezel. On olive and deeper skin tones the vivid saturation creates a bold, luminous focal point that stands out even in lower light, and a white metal setting such as platinum or white gold can emphasize the cooler components of the blue for a refined contemporary look. The pear shape also lends itself to elongated settings that flatter the finger and can be oriented either point toward the nail or toward the hand to change perceived length and style. For buyers seeking investment quality and aesthetic flexibility, this untreated Tanzanian sapphire balances excellent cut, natural vivid color, and responsible disclosure, making it a confident selection for rings, pendants, or bespoke settings, and reflecting the standards and expertise of The Natural Sapphire Company.
