1.06 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Madagascar

When you are searching for a gemstone that finally ends the hunt, whether it is the perfect sapphire for an engagement ring or a singular piece to start a family collection, you want clarity of purpose as much as clarity of stone. This transparent 1.06 carat greenish blue sapphire answers that need with quiet confidence. Cut in a radiant shape, and measuring 5.76 by 5.03 by 3.73 mm, this gem is a balanced presence on the hand and a striking focal point in a pendant or ring. It presents intense color, an excellent polish, and a clarity graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means the beauty of the color and the internal fire are uninterrupted to the casual and admiring eye. Origin Madagascar, heat treated to bring out its best, and carefully finished by cutters who respect the stone’s natural characteristics, this sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company offers a rare combination of saturated, nuanced color and a well controlled cut that delivers life and movement in every facet. If your search is driven by an emotional decision, such as choosing a piece that must symbolize commitment, or by a collector’s eye for unusual tones and precise craftsmanship, this stone answers both reasons with authenticity and class.

The radiant cut, chosen for this greenish blue sapphire, maximizes the stone’s brilliance while preserving depth of color, giving it an optical presence that reads larger than its weight alone. That combination of breadth and depth is what makes this stone versatile, so it will look impeccably modern in a minimalist solitaire, wonderfully vintage in a halo surrounded by delicate diamonds, and perfectly bold in a three stone setting that pairs it with tapered baguettes or round brilliants. The intense color intensity means the gem sits on the border between blue and green, a color that shifts with light and movement, creating an intimate conversation between wearer and stone. The excellent polish ensures light glides across the facets without interruption, making the gem appear luminous from every angle, and the very slightly included clarity gives the sapphire personality without detracting from its overall brilliance. At 1.06 carat, with those dimensions, it balances presence and practicality, comfortable enough for everyday wear and substantial enough to turn heads on special occasions. Consider metals such as 18 karat yellow gold to warm and emphasize any green undertone, rose gold to introduce a romantic contrast, or platinum and white gold to let the blue side of the color sing. Each choice will create a different mood, and you can be confident this gem adapts beautifully.

When you envision a generational heirloom, durability, story, and provenance matter as much as beauty. Sapphires are a classic heirloom choice because of their exceptional hardness, second only to diamond on the Mohs scale, which ensures this 1.06 carat Madagascar sapphire will resist daily wear and maintain its cut and polish generation after generation. Beyond physical resilience, this stone brings provenance into the narrative, with origin Madagascar adding a layer of geographic story that collectors and descendants appreciate. The fact that the stone is heat treated is an important, transparent detail, it is an accepted and stable enhancement that refines color without compromising integrity, and it is standard practice for many fine colored gemstones. At The Natural Sapphire Company we document these details and can provide certification and full disclosure so your heirloom has an irrefutable paper trail that future generations will value as much as the gem itself. Imagine an engagement ring where the band bears the initials of the original owner, then later a wedding anniversary where the stone is re-set into a pendant for a daughter, and years beyond when grandchildren admire a jewel that still captures the same sparkle. The well proportioned radiant cut and excellent polish give this sapphire a timelessness that makes re-setting straightforward, and the stone’s strong color and clarity ensure it will hold aesthetic value as styles evolve. With basic maintenance, periodic professional cleanings, and a recommended annual inspection to check settings, this sapphire can pass through hands and fashions while continuing to anchor family milestones.

Choosing this greenish blue radiant sapphire is also a decision rooted in practical reassurance. At The Natural Sapphire Company we guide you through design and setting options, recommend the ideal metal to complement the color and your lifestyle, and provide services such as custom design, secure mounting, and documentation so that the piece you commission is both beautiful and enduring. We will discuss appraisal and insurance recommendations, and we provide storage and care advice that is easy to follow, such as gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and avoiding harsh chemicals and extreme heat, all measures that preserve the stone and the setting. If you desire a matching pair for earrings, or a coordinating band that can sit alongside the center stone, we can source or match additional sapphires to maintain color harmony. Our team understands that choosing a generational piece is an emotional and practical commitment, so we offer consultations to help you visualize the finished piece on your hand or neck before any metalwork begins, so that you know how the dimensions 5.76 by 5.03 by 3.73 mm will register in real life. This sapphire is not merely a purchase, but a solution to your search for a stone that combines rare, intense color, expert cutting and polish, stable enhancement, and verifiable origin into a piece that will carry meaning and beauty across lifetimes.
