One transparent 1.13 carat oval shaped bluish green sapphire, presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, offers precise proportions and measured refinement. The gem measures 6.72 x 5.56 x 3.52 mm, and it is faceted in a mixed brilliant cut to balance scintillation and overall depth of color. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, indicating that inclusions are minimal and do not detract from the stone s appearance in typical viewing conditions. Color intensity is described as intense, with a well saturated bluish green tone that remains vivid across the table and crown facets. The polish is excellent, providing crisp facet junctions and strong return of light, and the sapphire is offered in its natural state with no enhancement. The documented origin is Madagascar, a source known for producing high quality sapphires with attractive color range and clarity.
The combination of shape, cut, and color makes this sapphire versatile for a range of jewelry applications, fitting seamlessly into both casual and formal settings. At 1.13 carats the size is substantial enough to serve as a center stone in an elegant ring, yet modest enough to integrate into refined studs or a pendant for everyday wear. The mixed brilliant cut enhances sparkle in movement, allowing the bluish green hue to present as calming and sophisticated under soft daylight, and lively and luminous under evening illumination. Because the sapphire is unenhanced and transparent, its natural color and structure can be appreciated without concern for artificial treatments, and its excellent polish contributes to a finished aesthetic that complements both minimal contemporary settings and more traditional, gem forward designs. The gem s oval outline also offers the visual advantage of elongation when set in a ring, which can enhance perceived finger length while maintaining a balanced appearance on a variety of hand sizes.
Practical considerations support the sapphire s suitability for regular wear as well as special occasions. As corundum, sapphire registers a nine on the Mohs hardness scale, providing robust resistance to scratches and maintaining surface integrity in daily use. Recommended mounting options include a simple bezel or low profile prong setting for active lifestyles, a halo of small diamonds for added contrast and presence in formal jewelry, or a three stone composition for symbolic designs. The stone s dimensions and depth allow flexibility in metal choice, with yellow gold enhancing the warm green tones, white gold and platinum emphasizing cooler blue notes, and rose gold introducing a subtle contrast for contemporary styling. For buyers seeking customization, The Natural Sapphire Company can advise on proportions and setting geometry to maximize brilliance and protect girdle and pavilion edges during fabrication.
Documentation and provenance are included as part of our standard practice, ensuring transparency about origin and treatment history. Prospective clients are encouraged to view the stone under multiple lighting conditions to appreciate the range of bluish green expression and to consult with The Natural Sapphire Company on mounting options that align with intended use and aesthetic preferences. This sapphire presents a refined balance of color intensity, clarity, and cut quality, making it a durable and attractive choice for a central piece in everyday jewelry or a distinguished accent in a formal ensemble.
