1.02 Ct. Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This exceptional, transparent 1.02 carat oval green sapphire from Madagascar is a rare find, brought to you by The Natural Sapphire Company. Measuring 5.72 by 4.60 by 4.58 millimeters with a mixed brilliant cut, this gem exhibits lively scintillation and an excellent polish that enhances its medium color intensity. Unenhanced and natural, it carries a slightly included clarity grade at eye level, which lends authenticity and character rather than detracting from its beauty. The subtle inclusions act as proof of its natural origin and add a unique internal fingerprint, while the mixed brilliant facet arrangement maximizes fire and brilliance, making the stone surprisingly lively for its serene green tone. Pieces like this are uncommon in the market, and collectors and connoisseurs will appreciate the combination of a refined oval silhouette, a true natural Madagascar provenance, and the integrity of an untreated sapphire.

For a bespoke creation, this green oval becomes a remarkably versatile center stone, capable of both understated elegance and bold, couture statements. Set in warm 18 karat rose gold, the green takes on a luminous, fresh contrast that feels modern and feminine, especially when embraced by a delicate halo of warm champagne diamonds or small peach and padparadscha sapphires that accentuate the stone’s green with soft, complementary warmth. For a classic, high-contrast look, a fine platinum or white gold gallery with a single row of fine white brilliant diamonds makes the green sing, increasing perceived sparkle and elevating the hue. Consider a low-profile bezel for everyday wear and security, or a four-prong elevated solitaire to allow light to pass through the pavilion for maximum brilliance. For a more artisanal or vintage-inspired custom piece, pair the oval with tapered baguette diamonds or rose-cut melee in a three-stone configuration, or flank it with soft pink sapphires or spinels for a refined color story that reads as both exclusive and bespoke. Each setting option emphasizes the stone’s individuality and rarity, and because sapphires of this exact character rarely come to market, The Natural Sapphire Company invites you to commission a one-of-a-kind design so you may own an intimate, exclusive jewel that will be treasured for generations.
