At 7.08 by 6.57 by 4.35 millimeters, this transparent gem presents a classic cushion silhouette, generous in its face up presence, and cut with a mixed brilliant style that bridges old world charm and modern brilliance.

The rich, bold green of this sapphire is its defining voice, deep and resonant, a dark color intensity that commands attention and confers a quiet but unmistakable authority. Green has long been associated with renewal, with abundance, and with a certain steadfastness, and in this stone that hue reads as a symbol of personal power and distinction. Viewed in different lights the color breathes, revealing depth and complexity, a palette that ranges from forest shadow to subtle olive highlights where the facets catch the eye. The mixed brilliant cut amplifies that play of light, marrying larger crown facets with a finely faceted pavilion to create flashes of brilliance and areas of contemplative depth. With a clarity grade of very slightly included as evaluated at eye level, the stone retains a transparent purity, while the natural inclusions serve as proof of its authenticity and origin, subtle signatures of the earth that formed it. The excellent polish ensures that each facet edge is crisp and reflective, allowing the green to read with clarity and richness, and enabling the wearer to project a refined and enduring sense of taste.
