1.10 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

Imagine holding a gem that seems to hold an entire secret garden inside its facets, a small world that breathes with bluish green light whenever you turn it. This 1.10 carat asscher octagon shape sapphire sits perfectly between refinement and wonder, its transparent body inviting your gaze and keeping your attention. At 5.92 x 5.31 x 3.27 mm it feels intimate in the hand and majestic on the finger, a jewel that captures the joy of giving and the quiet thrill of owning something truly singular. The medium intense color intensity shifts from sea green to a stormy teal depending on the hour and the angle, and because it comes to you without enhancement, its tone is pure, honest, and full of natural life. When you choose this sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company you are choosing more than a stone, you are choosing a memory that will catch the light and the hearts of everyone who sees it.

What makes this sapphire sparkle in a way that feels almost unmatched is its asscher cut structure, a classic step cutting style that has been elevated to an art form in this particular gem. The asscher faceting creates broad, concentric steps on the crown and pavilion that act like a perfectly designed hall of mirrors, producing flashes of light that move in measured, regal waves across the surface. Unlike a brilliant cut that scatters light into a myriad of tiny scintillations, the asscher architecture rewards the eye with bold, dramatic flashes, deep internal reflections, and a luminous interplay of light and shadow. The excellent polish on every facet ensures that each mirror is pristine, so light glides across the surfaces without interruption and returns to the viewer with clarity and brilliance. The clarity grade of very very slightly included at eye level means the gemstone presents a clean, open window into its interior, inviting close inspection while maintaining the integrity of those signature step reflections. Those tiny natural marks play their part in depth, letting certain flashes dance a little differently, adding character while preserving the elegant, geometric rhythm that makes the asscher cut so mesmerizing.

Origin matters when you want a story behind your stone, and this sapphire hails from Madagascar, a source known for producing gems with soul and distinctive color. The combination of its natural origin, lack of enhancement, and meticulous cutting produces an emotional response that goes beyond visual admiration, it creates a feeling of connection, as if the piece were chosen specifically to mark a milestone or a moment of love. Imagine this gem set at the center of a bespoke ring where the asscher faceting aligns with a refined setting to amplify that hall of mirrors effect, or gifted as a promise that will be remembered for its rare, deep calm and living color. At The Natural Sapphire Company we cherish the journey each stone has taken, and we present this asscher octagon sapphire ready to become the focus of your celebrations, the anchor of your personal style, and the spark that will brighten everyday moments into treasured memories.
