1.10 Ct. Green Sapphire from Madagascar

At The Natural Sapphire Company we are pleased to present a rare and beautiful pear shaped green sapphire that stands out for its natural color and superb craftsmanship. This transparent 1.10 carat gem measures 8.34 x 5.57 x 3.43 mm and features a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes both fire and depth. The clarity grade is very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means the stone looks clean and lively to the naked eye while retaining natural character under magnification. The color intensity is intense, delivering a lush green tone that shifts subtly with light, and the polish is excellent, so facets return light with crisp brilliance. Importantly this sapphire is from Madagascar and has had no enhancement, a distinction that offers collectors and buyers authenticity and peace of mind when compared with many treated stones on the market.

When you compare this Madagascar green sapphire with other green gemstones available today, its combination of natural color, durability, and optical performance really sets it apart. Unlike emeralds, which often require oiling or other treatments to improve clarity and stability, this sapphire is free of enhancement, preserving its natural integrity. Compared with green tourmaline, which can be vivid but typically lacks the hardness of a sapphire, this gem benefits from the superior toughness of corundum, making it resistant to everyday wear. Even among sapphires, many stones on the market have been heat treated to modify hue and clarity, but this pear shaped example remains in its original state, which appeals to purists and those seeking investment quality. The mixed brilliant cut is also an advantage over simpler step cuts, because it balances scintillation and depth, creating lively flashes even in modest lighting, while the pear shape offers a graceful silhouette that tends to elongate the finger and enhance the presence of the setting.

The versatility of this green sapphire is one of its greatest strengths, fitting effortlessly into both casual and formal wardrobes. Worn in a simple bezel or prong solitaire it becomes an everyday talisman, combining robust wearability with a color that complements denim and neutral tones. For formal occasions the same stone transforms into a statement piece when set in a halo or paired with small accent diamonds, where the intense green plays beautifully against white metal or yellow gold. Designers and clients will appreciate the gem dimensions, which allow for delicate, modern settings as well as more traditional designs. Because the stone is transparent and well polished, it reads well under different lighting conditions, so it maintains presence in candlelight as well as daylight. The pear shape lends itself to pendants and drop earrings in addition to rings, creating options for coordinated sets that move elegantly with the wearer.
