1.05 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Madagascar

From the rainforest gravels of Madagascar to the precise hands that shaped its final form, this 1.05 carat oval greenish blue sapphire carries a quiet story of earth and craft. Buried in alluvial deposits and coaxed from the river stone by local miners, the rough was chosen for its transparent depth and vivid color potential. Each grain of sand that once surrounded it witnessed slow pressures and heat over geological time, and today that ancient patience is revealed in a gem that seems to hold a slice of ocean and forest together. At The Natural Sapphire Company we respect that journey, and we honor it by selecting only those sapphires that can be transformed into lasting heirlooms.

The cutter then set out to translate that natural promise into brilliance, and the result is an oval with exacting geometry and a mixed brilliant cut, measuring 6.76 by 4.65 by 3.98 mm. The carefully planned pavilion facets and crown arrangement create a dance of light that maximizes sparkle and color flash, allowing every facet to act as a mirror that returns light through the table with lively scintillation. The gem reads as intensely colored, with a greenish blue tone that shifts subtly under movement, and it is transparent with a clarity grade described as very slightly included at eye level. An excellent polish completes the transformation, smoothing each facet junction so that light flows uninterrupted, and a responsible heat treatment was applied to enhance the stone s natural hue and stability. This sapphire is a study in geometry and hand finishing, an intimate collaboration between nature and craft that results in a gem ready to become the focal point of a ring or pendant. If you seek a piece with a clear provenance, vibrant personality, and exceptional cutting, this Madagascar sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company offers a soulful connection to the land and a technical mastery that makes every glint worth watching.
