A singular jewel presents itself with poise and restrained drama, a transparent bluish green sapphire weighing 1.11 carats, carved into a refined fancy shape with dimensions of 8.33 x 6.71 x 3.95 mm. Its step cut confers an architectural clarity to every plane, a series of crisp facets that channel light with an almost meditative calm, and an excellent polish that allows each plane to sing with satin like luster. Evaluated at eye level it is graded very slightly included, an assurance of exceptional clarity for a natural sapphire, and its intense color intensity remains vivid and consistent from table to pavilion. This is a stone that speaks of natural provenance, wholly untouched by heat or other enhancements, its origin Madagascar, a locale now celebrated for producing some of the most intriguing and characterful sapphires of our time. When set, the gem offers a modern yet timeless presence, a jewel that reads as both an artistic statement and an heirloom quality treasure.
Beyond its immediate aesthetic appeal, this sapphire carries compelling attributes that make it a serious candidate for investment grade consideration. Natural, unheated sapphires of such clarity and color command a premium in the market, driven by a global rise in demand for authentic, sustainably sourced colored gemstones. Madagascar has emerged as a focal point for collectors and connoisseurs, and the combination of an uncommon bluish green hue with a well executed step cut elevates this stone above more common offerings. The rarity of unenhanced material, coupled with the gemological certainty that comes from transparent origin and treatment disclosure, tends to produce superior liquidity among discerning buyers, institutions, and private collectors. The refined proportions at 1.11 carats, together with the very slightly included clarity and excellent polish, create a balance of beauty and investment soundness, a piece that can be appreciated visually while also serving as a portable, tangible store of value.
Owning this sapphire through The Natural Sapphire Company is a gesture of both taste and prudence, the kind of acquisition that reflects cultivated discernment and an eye for enduring value. The market for fine colored gemstones has shown a steady tightening of supply at the top end, as high quality, untreated material becomes scarcer and collector appetite grows for unique hues and documented origins. While no investment is without risk, history and current market dynamics suggest that well provenanced sapphires with exceptional natural color and clarity have strong potential to appreciate over time, especially when maintained in superb condition and accompanied by comprehensive documentation. For the buyer seeking a piece that can be worn with confidence, then conserved as an asset, this bluish green Madagascar sapphire offers both immediate gratification and long term promise, an emblem of refinement that captures light now, and the imagination of future collectors tomorrow. The Natural Sapphire Company stands ready to provide provenance documentation, expert care advice, and bespoke setting services, ensuring that this gem becomes not only a beautiful possession, but a considered investment and a lasting reflection of personal achievement.
