1.33 Ct. Sapphire from Madagascar

In the world of gemstones, sapphires have always held a place of distinction, captivating history enthusiasts and gem connoisseurs alike with their regal hues and storied past. Our newest offering, a stunning 1.33 carat oval shape bluish-green sapphire, exemplifies the timeless allure that these coveted gemstones have commanded throughout the centuries. Measuring 7.47 x 5.17 x 3.87 mm, this sapphire is an exquisite specimen from the richly blessed island of Madagascar, celebrated for its splendid revelations of fine sapphires. Madagascar's volcanic landscapes and unique geological conditions have made it a storied source for alluring gemstones that are deeply saturated in color, much like this one.

This sapphire possesses a mixed brilliant cut, a testament to the art and science of gemstone cutting that heightens its brilliance and maximizes every flicker of reflected light. In comparison to renowned historical sapphires such as the 563-carat Star of India, which is famous for its starry pattern known as asterism, our sapphire presents an entirely different kind of magnificence. Its charm lies in its ability to capture the imagination through a blend of modern cutting mastery and the ageless charm of its mixed brilliant format. Its clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, ensures that the gemstone maintains a beautiful clarity akin to the sapphire worn by Catherine the Great, famed not for inclusions but for its deep and lustrous hue, reminiscent of a silent but omnipresent legacy steeped in history.

At The Natural Sapphire Company, we take immense pride in presenting gemstones that stand out for their unique characteristics and undeniable elegance. This dark color intensity brings out the densest, most appealing shades of bluish-green, like the deep oceanic depths or the lush, sprawling forests, both of which connect it deeply to the Earth’s timeless and ever-renewing mysteries. Polished to an excellent finish, the surface sparkles with the promise of legend, bearing the kind of presence that makes it worthy of passing down through generations. Each piece we offer, especially one as stunning as this sapphire, is crafted not just as an accessory, but as a piece of history in the making, ready to be cherished anew by someone who values tradition and the timeless beauty that defines the finest gemstones throughout history.
