1.47 Ct. Blue Sapphire from Australia

One beautiful transparent 1.47 carat oval blue sapphire from Australia, measuring 8.41 by 6.36 by 3.15 millimeters, offers a connection to the long and storied history of sapphires that spans royal courts and ancient traditions. Cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance scintillation and depth, this gem presents a dark color intensity and an excellent polish that speaks to expert cutting and care. Its clarity grade is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, and the stone has been heat treated, a time honored enhancement that refines and stabilizes color while preserving the inherent character of the crystal. Sapphires have been cherished for millennia for their endurance and symbolism, associated with wisdom, protection, and fidelity, qualities that make this oval sapphire not just a gem, but a legacy waiting to be set and passed down.

In any jewelry setting this Australian blue sapphire will command attention, its vibrant depth of blue standing out against white gold and platinum as profoundly as it complements the warmth of yellow and rose gold. The mixed brilliant facets pick up light and return it as flashes of intense blue, allowing the stone to read as both dramatic and refined whether set as a timeless solitaire, embraced by a halo of diamonds, or paired with side stones in a classic three stone design. Because of its oval shape and excellent polish, the gem elongates and flatters, creating a focal point that draws the eye and holds the gaze. At The Natural Sapphire Company we appreciate how a well chosen sapphire becomes the heart of a treasured piece, and this Australian gem is ideally suited for an heirloom engagement ring, a distinguished pendant, or a pair of elegant earrings. Its rich color and enduring presence ensure it will stand out in any setting, and its provenance and craftsmanship offer the reassurance that this is a gem meant to be loved for generations.
