This oval shape bi color sapphire from Madagascar presents a rare and compelling balance of personality and refinement, and it is offered with full transparency by The Natural Sapphire Company. Weighing 0.52 carat and measuring 5.39 by 4.00 by 2.88 millimeters, this transparent gem has been fashioned into a mixed brilliant cut to maximize sparkle while retaining an elegant silhouette. Its clarity is graded as very very slightly included at eye level, which means the stone reads as essentially eye clean and projects impressive brilliance for its size. The color shows a medium intensity that allows both cooler blue tones and warmer green to soft yellow flashes to show through depending on the light and viewing angle, a true bi color character that feels dynamic rather than fixed. The sapphire has been heat treated, a common and stable enhancement that brings out the best in Madagascar material, and it receives an excellent polish so each facet echoes and returns light with lively depth.
When compared to single tone sapphires and to many commercial pieces in the market, this bi color sapphire stands apart for its chameleon like versatility and eye catching individuality. Many sapphires in this price range rely on intense singular color or larger carat weight to command attention, but this stone offers a different value proposition. Its mixed brilliant cut is designed to deliver maximum scintillation and apparent size, which means you perceive more light and life than a step cut or a poorly proportioned stone of similar carat weight. The clarity at eye level is superior to much of the material of this size, giving confident transparency without the premium that an untreated rarity would demand. Compared to synthetic alternatives, a natural bi color sapphire preserves geological complexity and uniqueness that cannot be duplicated in the lab, and compared to stones from more common origins, a Madagascar sapphire has a specific geological fingerprint that collectors appreciate. For conscious shoppers seeking the most visual impact per carat and the satisfaction of owning a stone with a story, this sapphire presents exceptional value.
Ethical sourcing is central to why this sapphire belongs in a considered collection, and The Natural Sapphire Company is committed to clear provenance and responsible practices. Madagascar has become a prominent source of vibrant and unusual sapphires, and our approach emphasizes traceability, fair buyer relationships with local miners, and a transparent supply chain so you can understand where your gem originated and how it reached you. Heat treatment is fully disclosed as part of our commitment to honest representations, and the treatment used here is widely accepted in the trade for producing stable, lasting enhancements without compromising durability. For the conscious consumer who weighs environmental and social impact alongside aesthetic considerations, choosing a thoughtfully sourced natural sapphire is a meaningful step toward an ethical jewelry wardrobe.

Designers and collectors will find this 0.52 carat bi color oval to be unusually adaptable, and its compact dimensions and lively mixed brilliant cutting make it ideal for a range of settings. Set as a solitaire pendant it will draw attention with subtle color shifts, set as the center stone in a delicate ring it will offer daily sparkle and resilience because sapphire ranks at 9 on the Mohs scale, and paired with accent diamonds or warm metals the shifting tones will read differently, giving you multiple looks from a single piece. For those comparing options, this gem offers a combination of natural character, eye level clarity, and excellent polish that often exceeds what is available at the same price point for single color stones or lower clarity material. Our gem specialists at The Natural Sapphire Company can provide full images, magnified viewing, and certification details to help you evaluate fit and setting. For the mindful buyer who values provenance, craftsmanship, and distinctive beauty, this Madagascar bi color sapphire offers a superior, ethical, and versatile choice.
