3.49 Ct. Color Change Sapphire from Madagascar

Imagine a single jewel that gathers twilight and dawn within its heart, a 3.49 carat cushion shape color change sapphire that seems to breathe with the light, unfolding a story as you move. This gem measures 8.14 x 7.35 x 6.44 mm, a perfect balance of presence and grace, cut in a mixed brilliant style that scatters fire like starlight on dark water. Eye clean at face up inspection, its clarity reveals pools of vivid color intensity that shift from royal blue to a violet kissed evening, each facet finished with an excellent polish that lets the soul of the stone speak plainly. Unheated and untouched, a true gift of nature from Madagascar, this sapphire arrives with no enhancement, a pure and honest fragment of the earth waiting to be set into a piece that will carry meaning across years.

For bespoke jewelers and dreamers, this sapphire is a uniquely generous canvas, its cushion outline lending itself beautifully to both classic and contemporary designs, from a halo framed engagement ring to a sleek bezel pendant that lets the color change steal the show. At 8.14 by 7.35 millimeters the scale is ideal for an elegant solitaire or a three stone arrangement, large enough to command attention and intimate enough to sit comfortably on a slender band, to be worn every day. The mixed brilliant cut balances scintillation and depth, ensuring that when light finds the table the gem answers with a lively dance, and because it is eye clean the face up appearance remains serenely clear, allowing jewelers to craft settings that emphasize color and silhouette without distraction. With a hardness of nine on the Mohs scale the sapphire is well suited to daily wear, a steadfast partner for a ring that will be worn, cherished, and passed on.
