1.09 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Montana

A single gem can speak volumes, and this pear shape bluish green sapphire speaks in a refined and unmistakable language of rarity, presence, and timeless luxury. At 1.09 carats, this gem crosses an important threshold where weight becomes as persuasive as color in commanding value, visibility, and desirability. The moment the light finds its mixed brilliant facets, the gem announces itself with poise and restraint, a statement that is quietly opulent rather than ostentatious. For the collector who understands that carat weight is more than a number, but a marker of scarcity and investment potential, this sapphire offers an elegant balance of wearability and prestige, a jewel that looks right on the hand, while also carrying the cachet of discernment and taste.

Measured at 7.94 by 5.16 by 3.75 millimeters, the proportions of this pear shaped stone are tailored to maximize its face up presence, while maintaining a depth that supports strong light return and visual weight. The mixed brilliant cut brings scintillation to the table, and the excellent polish allows each facet to perform with clarity and sparkle. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity grade is slightly included, a characteristic that confirms the natural origin and individuality of the stone without diminishing its transparency or brilliance. The color presents as a medium light intensity bluish green, a hue that is at once sophisticated and versatile, moving from a cool aquamarine like tone in softer light to a richer teal presence when the gem meets brighter light. Critically for connoisseurs, this sapphire has undergone no enhancement, a factor that amplifies both its rarity and its intrinsic value, and its origin in Montana situates it within a tradition of American sapphires that are prized for their distinct and subtle color signatures.

Weight matters in gemstones in ways that are both tangible and psychological, and the 1.09 carat weight of this sapphire should be understood through both lenses. Tangibly, every increment beyond a single carat tends to bring disproportionate desirability and price appreciation, because larger natural rough is exponentially less common. Psychologically, a gem that surpasses the one carat mark carries an authority that elevates any setting, and yet this stone remains eminently wearable, its pear shape lending elongation and elegance to a finger or pendant. The slightly included clarity confirms authenticity and natural origin, while the lack of treatment secures premium positioning among collectors and investors. The mixed brilliant cut optimizes light performance so that the gem reads larger to the eye than its actual measurements might suggest, creating a commanding presence without excessive bulk. For those who value provenance and integrity, a Montana origin and no enhancement are definitive attributes that elevate both the story and the market value of this sapphire.
