Deep beneath the surface of an ancient Malagasy landscape, where tectonic plates had nudged and folded the earth millions of years ago, pressure and heat coaxed aluminum and trace elements together in a slow alchemy that would one day become this blue green jewel. Silica rich fluids moved through fractures in the host rock, carrying the essential ingredients for sapphire formation, and in pocketed cavities crystals grew with measured patience, each facet of their internal lattice recording epochs of time. Tiny amounts of iron and chromium gave this crystal its rare bluish green tone, a color that is less often seen than pure blue, and as rivers and rains wore away the overburden, this crystal made its way into alluvial gravels. Skilled hands in Madagascar recovered it from those ancient beds, and careful heat treatment refined its hue and clarity without compromising the integrity of its natural origin. This is not a stone that can be replicated in abundance, it is a tangible fragment of geological history, transparent and deliberate, carrying the slow craft of the earth in every ray it returns.
Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this beautiful transparent 1.10 carat asscher octagon shape bluish green sapphire measures 5.82 x 5.66 x 3.36 mm, its asscher cut sharpening the step facets into a bold architecture that emphasizes depth and clarity. Evaluated at eye level it carries a clarity grade of very very slightly included, a testament to its natural formation, while its intense color intensity and excellent polish create a presence that reads both modern and timeless. Enhancement by heat treatment has been practiced to reveal the stone at its most expressive, and its Madagascar origin places it among the most sought after sapphires for collectors and connoisseurs. Because of its size, cut, and rare hue, this gem is offered as a singular opportunity to own a distinct piece of nature, a jewel for those who appreciate provenance and scarcity. We invite you to join an exclusive group of owners who understand the story behind such a gem, and to allow The Natural Sapphire Company to assist in creating a bespoke setting that will honor the stone for generations.
