0.63 Ct. Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This green sapphire, a transparent 0.63 carat round from Madagascar, embodies the quiet authority of storied gemstones while remaining eminently wearable for modern life. Cut to a mixed brilliant style and measuring 4.89 by 4.91 by 3.46 millimeters, it presents a lively interplay of facets and a pleasing face up presence. The stone is graded very, very slightly included at eye level, with a medium color intensity and an excellent polish, and it is offered with no enhancement, a detail that speaks to a straightforward integrity prized by collectors and connoisseurs alike. Sapphires have been treasured for millennia for their endurance and symbolism, and green sapphires in particular recall classic jewelers palettes that evoke verdant landscapes and antique gemstone traditions. With a hardness of nine on the Mohs scale, this gem is as suitable for everyday wear as it is for ceremonial pieces, and when set thoughtfully it will carry a sense of legacy from one generation to the next. At The Natural Sapphire Company we value provenance and natural beauty, and this Madagascar gem is an example of the rare, unaltered character so many clients seek when commissioning a timeless piece.

When imagining this sapphire transformed into jewelry, the possibilities are abundant. Set as a solitaire in a four or six prong mount it will maximize light return and show off the mixed brilliant cut, creating a refined engagement ring that feels both classic and individual. For a more historic or vintage sensibility, a bezel or millegrain surround will emphasize the stone’s antique charm while offering extra protection, and a halo of small diamonds or cognac sapphires will intensify the green hue and add period drama. This gem also adapts beautifully to smaller scale jewelry, making an elegant single-stone pendant, a pair of asymmetric studs paired with a diamond, or the center of a three-stone ring flanked by tapered baguettes for a measured, heirloom composition. Metal choices including platinum, 18 karat yellow gold, and rose gold each alter the personality of the gem, with warm metals bringing out golden green flashes and white metals lending a cooler, museum-quality aesthetic. For bespoke projects our design consultants at The Natural Sapphire Company can explore tension settings, east-west orientations, pavé shoulders, and engraved or filigree galleries to match a personal narrative. This green sapphire is a small but potent treasure, ready to be set into a design that will endure, be worn, and be cherished across decades.
