1.16 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Tanzania

This beautifully transparent 1.16 carat oval bluish green sapphire measures 6.52 x 5.18 x 4.11 mm, and it offers a rare combination of size, color, and natural integrity that discerning buyers seek. The mixed brilliant cut gives lively sparkle and balanced light performance, while the excellent polish ensures crisp facet reflections that enhance the intense color intensity of the stone. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity grade is very slightly included, which means this sapphire appears clean to the naked eye and retains strong durability and brightness. Unlike many sapphires on the market that are heat treated or otherwise enhanced to modify color and clarity, this gem is natural with no enhancement, a characteristic that significantly elevates its value and appeal for collectors who prioritize authenticity and long term worth. The oval shape provides elegant proportions that suit both solitaire and halo settings, and the 1.16 carat weight makes this sapphire versatile for a refined engagement ring or a standout cocktail ring.

For conscious consumers, provenance and ethical sourcing matter as much as color and cut, and this sapphire comes from Tanzania, a source known for producing vibrant, uniquely hued sapphires. The Natural Sapphire Company sources stones through trusted partners and transparent supply chains, focusing on fair labor practices and environmentally mindful mining where possible, so this gem can be added to a collection with confidence. Compared to many commercially treated or anonymously sourced stones, this untreated Tanzanian sapphire offers a genuine narrative, pairing geological rarity with a responsible supply story. In a market where lower cost alternatives often sacrifice natural state or traceability, this sapphire represents superior quality and clear value, because it combines an intense natural hue, professional mixed brilliant cutting, and an unenhanced origin that collectors and ethical buyers increasingly demand. Choosing this sapphire means selecting a gem that stands apart from mass market options, delivering both the visual impact of an intense bluish green color and the reassurance of conscientious sourcing through The Natural Sapphire Company.
