1.10 Ct. Bi Color Sapphire from Tanzania

The captivating gemstone, a 1.10 carat bi-color sapphire, is a remarkable example of nature’s artistry. Its transparent nature coupled with the radiant shape speaks volumes of its inherent allure. Measuring 6.78 x 5.13 x 3.16 mm, it commands attention and admiration. The story of this gem stretches back millions of years, originating from deep within the earth’s crust in Tanzania. It is within the volcanic terrains and mineral deposits of this region that the sapphire found its unique combination of elements, leading to its distinctive bi-color feature.

The formation of this sapphire can be traced back to the heart of the earth, under an incredible amount of heat and pressure. Over eons, this natural process resulted in the creation of corundum, the mineral species from which sapphires derive. In the case of a bi-color sapphire like this one, the presence of varying trace elements such as iron and titanium during its formation caused simultaneous zones of color to develop within the same crystal. This, coupled with an ideally enduring natural process, led to the birth of its vivid color intensity, distinguishing it from single-colored counterparts.

This particular sapphire displays a radiant cut, expertly fashioned to enhance its natural beauty. The facets are precisely cut to allow light to reflect and refract across every surface. The result is a heightened brilliance that enhances its striking bi-color nature. A clarity grade of slightly included, evaluated at eye level, ensures a perfect balance between authenticity and allure. These inclusions, a testament to its natural origins, are subtly observable, inviting discerning individuals to appreciate its unique character even more.

Polish and finish play a critical role in the appearance of such a gemstone. The excellent polish of this sapphire ensures smooth surfaces that further accentuate its radiant cut. Every edge and facet manifests a mirror-like sheen, which not only contributes to its luminosity but also its tangible elegance. It is these attributes that make this Tanzanian sapphire a coveted piece, elevating it from mere gemstone to a work of art, meticulously crafted by nature and honed by skilled artisans.
