2.12 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Madagascar

Deep beneath the ancient crust, where tremendous pressure and time coax color into crystal, this greenish blue sapphire began its long journey. From Madagascar, a land known for its rich sapphire deposits, the rough was carefully sourced and transported to our cutting studio where master craftsmen examined its color zoning and inclusions to reveal the gem within. Meticulously faceted into an emerald cut, this 2.12 carat stone measures 8.48 x 6.01 x 4.22 mm, and displays a transparent body with vivid color intensity, an excellent polish, and a clarity described as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level. Untreated and natural, the gem retains the honest story of its origin, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we honor that story by preserving its character through a restrained and precise cut that maximizes depth of color and elegant light play.

When you imagine this emerald cut greenish blue sapphire set into a custom piece, several directions bring out different aspects of its personality. For a classic and luminous look, place the stone in a platinum or white gold four prong setting, surrounded by a halo of brilliant round diamonds to amplify brilliance and add contrast that makes the blue green sing. For a more architectural or vintage feel, shoulder it with tapered baguette diamonds on either side, or choose a three stone design where the linear facets of the emerald cut harmonize with step cut accents. To emphasize the green notes, flank the center with small tsavorite garnets or mint green sapphires set in yellow gold for a fresh, lively contrast. For a romantic palette, pair it with delicate pink sapphires or rose gold settings that introduce warmth and a subtle color dialogue. In a pendant or pair of earrings, a bezel setting in warm yellow gold will soften the edges and create a jewel that reads deeper and more saturated at a distance, while a low profile prong mounting keeps the gem lively and mobile. We can recommend proportions and accent sizes that balance the 8.48 by 6.01 mm table, and craft a design that respects the stone’s untreated nature and Madagascar provenance. If you would like to explore custom sketches or see matching accent stones, The Natural Sapphire Company can guide you through design options that celebrate this sapphire’s unique story and make it the heart of your next heirloom.
