0.95 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Madagascar

This 0.95 carat, oval shape, greenish blue sapphire from Madagascar is a rare combination of clarity, color, and craftsmanship that distinguishes it from many stones commonly offered on the market. Measuring 6.94 by 5.63 by 3.08 mm, its transparent body and mixed brilliant cut create vivid life and scintillation that outshine the flatter appearance of poorly cut sapphires. The mixed brilliant cut balances brilliant facets for fire, with step facets for depth, producing strong light return and a lively face up appearance that often surpasses traditional cuts in perceived size and sparkle. With a clarity grade of very slightly included when viewed at eye level, this stone is essentially eye clean, offering a cleaner presentation than many commercial sapphires that exhibit visible inclusions. The intense, saturated greenish blue hue gives it a distinctive personality that is more compelling than washed out or overly gray blue alternatives, and the excellent polish ensures a silky surface and immediate brilliance on the finger or in a pendant. Heat treated enhancement has been applied in the standard, stable manner used across the trade to optimize color, providing a stunning, consistent tone while preserving the natural origin and structure of the gem. Compared to lab created stones, this natural sapphire carries the depth of origin and long term value that collectors and discerning buyers prefer, while compared to lower grade natural sapphires, its combination of cut, clarity, and polish delivers superior presence and wearability.

Over the years, this sapphire will continue to captivate through its combination of durable structure, expert cutting, and enduring color. Sapphire rates high on the hardness scale, so under normal wear it resists scratching and retains its polished surface far longer than many other gemstones. The excellent polish and mixed brilliant facet architecture mean that as light conditions change, the gem will reveal new flashes and tonal nuances rather than dulling, unlike poorly finished stones that lose sparkle with time. Because the enhancement is a conventional heat treatment, the color is stable and will not fade with light or routine cleaning, making this sapphire a reliable heirloom piece. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this gem is offered with full disclosure of origin and treatment, delivering a superior balance of beauty, rarity, and value. For buyers seeking a natural, eye clean, intensely colored oval sapphire that will maintain its appeal and investment worth for decades, this Madagascar greenish blue sapphire stands out as a thoughtful and enduring choice.
