This emerald cut greenish blue sapphire weighing 2.05 carats is offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, and it presents a balanced combination of measured proportions and natural color. The stone measures 8.19 by 5.89 by 3.68 millimeters, and its emerald cut emphasizes linear facets and step geometry. The material is transparent, with a clarity grade of slightly included when viewed at eye level, and an excellent polish has been applied to the facet planes to maximize crispness and optical clarity. Color intensity is described as medium intense, and the hue sits in the greenish blue range, a tone that offers both depth and versatility. There has been no enhancement to this sapphire, and its documented origin is Madagascar, a source known for producing a range of natural, unheated sapphires with attractive color variation.
The emerald cut has an inherently architectural character, and in this stone the stepped pavilion and broad table deliver an even, controlled presentation of the greenish blue color. The medium intensity allows the hue to read differently under varied light, offering cooler blue notes in bright daylight and slightly greener nuances in softer, warm illumination. The excellent polish contributes to a clear table window, so the slightly included clarity grade remains unobtrusive in typical wear. The combination of transparency and step cutting produces a calm, sophisticated flash of color rather than the scintillation more typical of brilliant cuts, and this quality permits the stone to be read as a discreet centerpiece or as a refined component in multi stone settings.
When set in jewelry, the greenish blue tone adapts well to a range of skin tones, and metal choice and setting design will influence the perceived color. On fair skin with cool undertones, the stone will appear crisply blue with a cool, elegant contrast when paired with white metals such as platinum or white gold, and a simple prong setting or an invisible gallery will allow light to pass through and emphasize the bluer aspect. On fair skin with warm undertones, or on light to medium warm complexions, the green notes will harmonize with yellow gold or rose gold settings, producing a subtle warm interplay that brings out the stone is greenish character while maintaining its blue depth. For medium and olive skin tones, the stone achieves balanced saturation, where both green and blue aspects are visible, and a mixed metal design can help highlight facets and add dimensional contrast. On deeper skin tones, the medium intense color will read richly, with the greenish blue appearing luminous against warm backgrounds, and settings that provide a thin halo of diamonds or a brighter metal rim will increase perceived brilliance without overwhelming the stone is natural color.
Practical considerations for design and care are straightforward given the stone is unheated and has no enhancements. The emerald cut dimensions of 8.19 by 5.89 by 3.68 millimeters provide a measured presence suitable for a primary ring center, pendant, or a statement earring, and the step cutting supports bezel work as well as prong settings. Slight inclusions are to be expected in a natural sapphire with this clarity grade, however the transparency and excellent polish minimize visual distraction in normal viewing distances. Where contrast is desired, pairing with near colorless diamonds will deliver a classic look, and where color continuity is preferred, adjacent colored sapphires in cooler or warmer green blue tones can create a cohesive palette. Routine care consists of gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and professional inspection of the setting at intervals to ensure security. The provenance from Madagascar and the untreated state are attributes that collectors and designers value for their influence on long term appearance and authenticity, and The Natural Sapphire Company is available to provide further details on gem reports, setting recommendations, and precise visual evaluation for custom jewelry projects.
