0.79 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This exquisite transparent bluish green marquise sapphire carries the quiet authority of centuries, its elegant silhouette recalling the refined tastes of the 18th century French court where the marquise cut first captured imaginations, and yet it feels utterly timeless, suitable for heritage pieces destined to be worn across generations. We present a 0.79 carat marquise shape sapphire from Madagascar, measuring 7.61 by 4.04 by 3.38 mm, with a mixed brilliant cut that gives it lively scintillation and depth, and an excellent polish that allows light to move through its medium intense color with serene clarity. The clarity grade is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, a testament to its natural origin and authenticity, and the stone is unenhanced, offering the pure voice of Madagascar in every facet. At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor the story held within each gemstone, and this sapphire stands as a quiet chapter of the earth, a piece that will sit gracefully in a classic setting while carrying the provenance and integrity discerning collectors seek.

Imagine this marquise sapphire set as the centerpiece of an heirloom ring, flanked by warm, old mine cut diamonds to echo its vintage spirit, the softer, chunky sparkle of the old mine cuts harmonizing with the mixed brilliant facets of the center stone, and set in rich 18 karat yellow gold to enhance the bluish green tones and suggest age and continuity. For a more refined, archival look consider a three stone design with tapered baguette diamonds in platinum for an Art Deco conversation between shape and light, the long clean lines of the baguettes making the marquise appear even more elongated and noble. Alternatively a delicate halo of small rose cut diamonds in a rose gold mounting will provide a softer, antique glow, while tiny green sapphires or mint colored tourmalines placed as accent stones can create a subtle ombre effect that honors the stone color without overpowering it. Whether you prefer the austere elegance of monochrome diamonds, the warm patina of mixed metals, or the gentle color conversation with complementary gems, this marquise from Madagascar will translate beautifully into a custom piece that feels both rooted in history and perfectly suited to a modern sensibility.
