This listing describes a transparent 1.64 carat radiant shape green sapphire, with dimensions of 6.16 x 5.73 x 4.73 millimeters, a radiant cut, a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, intense color intensity, and an excellent polish. The sapphire is heat treated and originates from Madagascar. The combination of its radiant geometry and careful cutting creates a balanced face up presentation that reads as a rich, saturated green, while retaining an open, transparent character. The pavilion and crown facets work together to control light return, producing a consistent visual depth that is evident whether the gem is viewed flat or on edge.
The apparent eye clean quality of this stone enhances its beauty from every angle. Although the clarity grade is very slightly included evaluated at eye level, the placement and size of the inclusions are such that they do not interrupt the overall transparency or the path of light through the gem. The excellent polish delivers crisp facet junctions and smooth reflective planes, so that specular highlights appear sharp and well defined across the table and crown. As the gem is rotated, the finely executed facet pattern maintains a steady cadence of light and dark areas, giving the impression of a near flawless presentation to the unaided eye, and preserving the integrity of the intense green color across viewing angles.
Color plays a central role in how this sapphire reads in hand, and the intense color intensity noted on the report translates into a presence that is both lively and deep. The radiant cut maximizes face up color while allowing internal transparency to contribute to brilliance, so that the green appears evenly distributed and resilient to directional light. Depending on the lighting environment, subtle variations appear that reveal cooler and slightly warmer nuances within the same green range, enhancing the stone with a layered appearance rather than a flat tone. The heat treatment applied is a customary and stable enhancement that refines the color without compromising the crystalline clarity, and the Madagascar origin contributes to the stone character that collectors and connoisseurs associate with that source.
From a design and practical perspective this 1.64 carat radiant green sapphire is versatile and refined. The dimensions of 6.16 by 5.73 by 4.73 millimeters allow the gem to sit comfortably in classic solitaires as well as in more contemporary settings that use protective bezels or partial halos to accentuate the cut. The combination of intense color, transparent body, very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level, and excellent polish means the stone will display consistently under daily wear and in more formal lighting conditions. At The Natural Sapphire Company this sapphire is presented with clear specification of its characteristics, enabling precise matching to mounting choices and design intent, and ensuring that its visual virtues and apparent eye clean presentation are preserved in the finished piece.
