2.04 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This transparent 2.04 carat Asscher cut sapphire presents an uncommon combination of size, clarity, and color control. The gemstone is faceted in a classic Asscher style with an octagonal outline, measuring 6.86 x 5.93 x 5.15 mm, which produces a large, attractive face up that reads confidently in jewelry settings intended as focal points. The body color is a bluish green with vivid color intensity, and the surface finish is described as excellent polish, which together deliver crisp facet definition and a refined visual presence. Clarity has been evaluated as Very Very Slightly Included when examined at eye level, a grade that conveys exceptional transparency and minimal visible inclusions. The sapphire is natural with no enhancement reported, and its documented origin is Madagascar.

The Asscher cut and the octagonal geometry work in harmony to emphasize the stone size and clarity, making the play of light deliberate and architectural rather than diffuse. Step facets in an Asscher design tend to create a hall of mirrors effect, giving depth and internal reflections that highlight the stone interior and color distribution. In this example the excellent polish maximizes contrast between facet planes, while the Very Very Slightly Included clarity ensures that internal features do not distract from the overall optical performance. The 2.04 carat weight, combined with the nearly 7 by 6 mm face up dimensions, yields a substantial visual footprint that remains elegant, rather than overpowering, which is ideal for pieces designed to draw attention without appearing heavy.

For a statement piece the sapphire’s size and clarity are principal assets. The sizable face up area lends itself to solitaire and halo designs where the central stone is intended to command attention, while the clean clarity allows for open settings that expose the pavilion and maximize brilliance. Preferred mounting choices include four or eight prong settings that secure the octagonal outline while preserving light entry, or a simple bezel for a modern silhouette where metal frames the shape. Accent stones can be used to introduce contrast, with pavé or channel set diamonds enhancing brightness and perceived size. The stone’s hardness and durability make it well suited for everyday wear in rings, as well as for pendants and brooches that are worn less frequently but benefit from a pronounced central gem.
