One transparent 1.73 carat pear shape bluish green sapphire is presented with precise proportions that measure 9.46 by 5.98 by 4.03 millimeters, offering a balanced silhouette suitable for a variety of fine jewelry settings. The gem features a mixed brilliant cut that combines step and brilliant facets to maximize both depth and scintillation, and it exhibits an excellent polish that enhances surface reflection and overall brilliance. Clarity is graded very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, indicating that the stone reads as eye clean while retaining tiny internal characteristics that attest to its natural origin. Color intensity is medium, yielding an even, soulful bluish green that shifts subtly with changes in lighting and viewing angle. The sapphire is natural, with no enhancement, and its origin is Madagascar, a source known for producing sapphires with refined color and character. The Natural Sapphire Company has evaluated and documented these attributes to provide a clear and accurate description for connoisseurs and designers.
Optical performance is notable for its combination of transparency and color distribution, with the mixed brilliant cut allowing for bright facet contrast and a pleasing play of light across the pear outline. The medium intensity bluish green is saturated enough to read distinctly at modest sizes, yet restrained enough to pair harmoniously with a wide range of metals and complementary stones. At this weight and dimension, the sapphire is particularly well suited to become a central pear shaped solitaire in an engagement ring, a suspended focal point in a pendant, or a refined accent in a bespoke earring design. The very very slightly included clarity means that inclusions are minimal and do not detract from the gem when set, while the excellent polish contributes to a clean, finished appearance that supports high end mounting techniques. As corundum, the sapphire benefits from long term durability, and its natural state without heat or other enhancements underscores its rarity and appeal to collectors and discerning clients.
A romantic narrative arises naturally from the gem color and clarity, inspired by the subdued blue green of a secluded coast at twilight, where the surface of the sea glows with the last memory of daylight. Picture a quiet inlet on the shores of Madagascar, where two people first exchange a steady look beneath a sky that deepens from blue to green as the evening cools. The stone encapsulates that moment, the medium intensity hue echoing the gradual strengthening of feeling, and the eye clean clarity reflecting an uncomplicated honesty between them. The faint internal traces within the sapphire become metaphorical threads, gentle reminders of shared history and the small imperfections that make any honest relationship distinct and enduring. The pear shape, elegant and tear like, suggests both the joy and the vulnerability of promising seasons together. This gem from The Natural Sapphire Company is presented not only as a measured and documented example of fine corundum, but also as an object that can carry a personal story, a quiet testament to a meaningful meeting, and a durable keepsake that will deepen in significance with time.
