1.52 Ct. Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This transparent 1.52 carat oval green sapphire presents an immediate impression of balance and refinement, with exact measurements of 7.80 by 6.73 by 3.45 mm. The mixed brilliant cut has been expertly executed to harmonize the rounded oval outline with a pavilion geometry that returns light with lively scintillation. Color is particularly noteworthy, described as vivid intensity, and the gem displays a rich, saturated green that reads attractive under a variety of lighting conditions. Origin is Madagascar, a source known for producing sapphires with complex and desirable hues, and the stone has been heat treated to enhance its color stability and visual appeal. Clarity has been evaluated at eye level as very very slightly included, which means the stone remains essentially clean to the unaided eye while retaining natural internal characteristics that speak to its natural origin and authenticity.

For the educated buyer who values measurable quality, the proportions of this sapphire contribute directly to its visual performance. The stone presents an effective depth of approximately 47.5 percent, a proportion that supports both a strong face up presence and good light return without appearing overly deep or shallow. The mixed brilliant cut maximizes the contrast between flash and body color, allowing the vivid green to remain lively rather than muted, while the excellent polish ensures that each facet edge is clean and that light passes through and reflects back with minimal surface diffusion. Heat treatment in sapphires from Madagascar is an industry standard when used to refine color and remove unwanted brownish tones, and when disclosed as here, it enhances value by producing a stable and attractive color that will endure under normal wear.

Clarity and polish together define how flawless quality enhances beauty from every angle. This sapphire has very very slight inclusions that do not detract from brilliance or transparency, and the clarity grade at eye level confirms that the gem offers a visually clean window through which the mixed brilliant faceting can perform. The excellent polish amplifies the sense of depth and vitality, making facet junctions crisp and luster exceptionally bright. From the table down through the pavilion, light is picked up and returned in a balanced manner, creating lively scintillation at oblique angles and a deep green glow in face up view. These optical characteristics make the sapphire versatile for a range of settings, because the stone maintains presence both in solitary display and when partnered with diamonds or warm metals.
