1.60 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

From a riverbed in Madagascar to your jewelry bench, this cushion shaped bluish green sapphire carries a story written in the language of earth and water. Miners working alluvial deposits uncovered the rough crystal, a moment of geological fortune shaped by heat and pressure over millions of years, and the stone found its way to The Natural Sapphire Company where careful selection and skilled cutting brought its best qualities forward. The cutter chose a mixed brilliant cut to marry fire and depth, and the result is a transparent 1.60 carat gem that measures 6.66 by 6.42 by 4.38 millimeters, finished with an excellent polish and intense color intensity. There has been no enhancement, so every nuance of hue and internal character is purely natural, a direct connection to its Madagascan origin.

What gives this sapphire its unmistakable signature is the choreography of tiny inclusions that live within its depths, a mineral fingerprint that assures authenticity and personality. At eye level the clarity is very very slightly included, so the gem reads clear and lively, while under magnification fine needle like inclusions and minute crystal pinpoints trace delicate lines and glimmers through the pavilion and crown, catching light to produce dynamic flashes of teal and forest green. Soft growth zoning weaves through the stone, a subtle map of the conditions in which the crystal formed, and microveils create layers of depth that make the color appear to shift as the stone turns. These natural inclusions do not detract, they define, adding a liveliness and individuality no treated stone can replicate. Paired with its cushion outline and precise mixed brilliant facets, the internal features enhance scintillation and a sense of depth that reads as both sophisticated and wild.

Offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, this Madagascar sapphire is a rare, ethical fragment of the planet, perfect for a piece that celebrates origin and craftsmanship. Its natural inclusions serve as a lifelong signature, a reminder that beauty is born of time and circumstance, and that a truly natural gem tells a story no replicated surface can match. If you seek a stone that combines intense color, superb polish, and a geological pedigree, this sapphire is ready to become the centerpiece of a design that honors its journey.
