The journey of this sapphire truly begins in the heart of Madagascar, a land renowned for its sapphire-rich soils.

Upon discovery, this sapphire was already a marvel of nature, boasting a vivid color intensity that hints at both green and blue hues, a rare and enchanting balance that evokes the sky meeting the sea. Artisans then refined its beauty by employing a masterful mixed brilliant cut, enhancing its brilliance while preserving its slightly included clarity grade.

Once in the hands of skilled craftsmen, each facet of the sapphire is meticulously polished to perfection. The result is an excellent polish that captures and reflects light with astounding brilliance. The mixed brilliant cut maximizes the play of light within the stone, crafting a visual symphony of sparkling hues that engage the eye from every angle. As this gem journeys from raw and untouched to polished and refined, it carries with it the character of its origins and the dedication of those who unveiled its splendor.

This extraordinary sapphire offers endless possibilities of personalization, making it a versatile choice for a variety of jewelry settings. Its round shape and vibrant translucence make it an exquisite centerpiece for an engagement ring, where its brilliance can symbolize unending love.
