3.56 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Tanzania

A single thought of the sea captured in crystal, this transparent greenish blue sapphire weighs a noble 3.56 carats, a weight that speaks of presence and promise, a weight that announces itself with the quiet confidence of a tide. Its oval form, measuring 9.66 by 8.21 by 5.45 mm, is a gentle, elongated whisper of geometry that sits like a secret on the hand. The color is vivid in intensity, a hue that leans toward the deep and luminous intersection of blue and green, as if sunlight and seaweed and sky had pooled together and frozen in a perfect moment. From Tanzania, a land of mineral riches and ancient earth, this gem arrives with a story of depth, a provenance that matters, and the assurance that nature has been generous in creating something rare. At 3.56 carats this sapphire carries weight not only in measure but in meaning, a premium presence that elevates every design it graces, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we honor that weight by presenting it as a centerpiece meant to be treasured.

Under the hand of the cutter this gem received a mixed brilliant cut, a disciplined geometry that marries the fire of brilliant facets with a sophisticated table and pavilion for maximum light return, and the result is a scintillation that feels like sunlight caught and released again and again. The clarity is described as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, a testament to its purity and the subtle signatures of its natural birth that add character without distracting from its brilliance. An excellent polish smooths every facet into a mirror that sings when light touches it, and a gentle heat treatment has been applied to enhance its innate color and clarity, a standard practice that reveals the stone at its most beautiful while preserving its natural soul. The way it captures light is intimate and complex, flashes of teal and ocean blue, deeper pools that give the eye a place to rest, and brighter edges that promise sparkle with every turn. A stone of 3.56 carats brings scale and drama, it becomes a focal point in any setting, balancing presence with elegance, and it feels luxurious because size in carats is not merely measurement, it is the promise of rarity and the hallmark of premium quality.

Imagine this sapphire set in a ring, a pendant, or an heirloom piece, its weight and color declaring a love that is as deliberate as it is luminous. There is romance in the way the light moves through its mixed brilliant facets, a poetry in the slight inclusions that whisper of the earth from which it came, and a certainty in the excellent polish and vivid color intensity that assures the wearer of its refined quality. The Natural Sapphire Company curates this stone with the care of a storyteller, offering its Tanzanian origin and heat treatment as part of its honest and transparent history, and inviting you to imagine what it will say when worn. At 3.56 carats this sapphire is at once wearable and memorable, a premium choice for someone seeking a meaningful center stone that will still feel intimate, a gem that will anchor a design and become a companion over the years. If you seek a gem that balances the majestic and the personal, that carries provenance, clarity, cut and color in harmonious measure, this greenish blue oval offers all that, and it asks only to be given a setting worthy of its ocean heart.
