2.02 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This transparent 2.02 carat cushion shape bluish green sapphire measures 8.38 x 6.06 x 4.10 mm and has been precision-cut to a mixed brilliant faceting scheme, combining a brilliant-cut crown with a modified step-cut pavilion to balance scintillation and depth of color. The mixed brilliant cut creates a complex pattern of small, well-proportioned crown facets that maximize return of white light and fire, while the pavilion’s modified steps preserve the stone’s vivid body color and optical depth, yielding strong contrast and controlled windowing when set. Clarity is graded as very slightly included (evaluated at eye level), with internal characteristics that are small and well distributed, contributing to visual transparency without detracting from face-up brilliance. Color intensity is vivid, a saturated bluish green that displays consistent tone across the table and facets, and the stone exhibits an excellent polish with crisp facet junctions and a smooth girdle execution. The sapphire has been heat treated, a standard and stable enhancement that improves color saturation and clarity without compromising durability.

Sourced from Madagascar and offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, this sapphire is presented within a framework of traceability and responsible procurement. Our sourcing emphasizes relationships with licensed small-scale producers, documented chain of custody, and disclosure of enhancements, enabling conscious buyers to evaluate both gem quality and ethical provenance. We prioritize minimal environmental disturbance, third-party verification where available, and fair labor practices in upstream supply partners, and we provide transparent information on treatment and origin so the responsible collector can make an informed acquisition. For setting and care, the stone’s cushion outline and mixed brilliant faceting lend themselves to low-profile four-prong or bezel settings that protect the girdle and showcase the stone’s vivid bluish green face-up color; routine cleaning with mild detergent and a soft brush will maintain the excellent polish and optical performance. This sapphire represents a technically refined example of cut and color, coupled with ethically minded sourcing, making it a considered addition to a collection that values both gemological excellence and responsible stewardship.
