2.49 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

A singular expression of natural beauty, this transparent 2.49 carat round bluish green sapphire is an object of quiet authority, destined to become a center of attention and a signature piece in any refined collection. Meticulously faceted in a mixed brilliant cut, the gem measures 7.35 x 7.40 x 6.09 mm, a near perfect round symmetry that translates to exceptional balance on the finger, neck, or wrist. Its intense color intensity captures both oceanic depth and a verdant whisper, a tone that reads as both contemporary and timeless. The clarity grade, described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, affirms that the stone presents with exceptional transparency, allowing the mixed brilliant faceting to render fire, scintillation, and depth without distraction. With an excellent polish and no enhancement, this sapphire speaks to the highest ideals of connoisseurship, its Madagascar origin imparting a provenance that collectors recognize and value. Worn alone, it reads as an achievement, an assured and elegant statement, and in every light it rewards inspection with a lively interplay of blue and green facets that seem to breathe as you move.

Envisioning this sapphire in a bespoke setting reveals a hundred elegant possibilities, each curated to elevate the gem and to reflect the wearer’s discernment. In a classic halo ring, a double row of colorless brilliant cut diamonds will amplify the center stone’s brilliance, their icy fire sharpening the sapphire’s bluish green hue while lending a crisp, architectural frame that enhances perceived size. For a more chromatic and modern approach, a surround of fine green tsavorites will deepen the sapphire’s green tones, creating a lush, garden palette that feels both rare and intimate. If drama is desired, pair the sapphire with elongated baguette-cut diamonds on either side, set in polished platinum, to accentuate the round stone’s mixed brilliant light performance while elongating the hand. For a pendant, imagine this 2.49 carat round suspended in a bezel of warm 18 carat yellow gold, accented by small pale aquamarines and rose cut diamonds, producing a layered, tonal composition that bridges cool and warm notes, and that moves like a private treasure close to the heart. For earrings or a bracelet, consider alternating small spinels or Paraiba tourmalines as accent stones, their rare electric blues and greens reinforcing the sapphire’s vivid character, while interspersed diamonds provide moments of luminous punctuation.

A bespoke commission allows you to craft a piece that is not merely jewelry, but a narrative of status and personal taste. A choice of metal will dramatically change the sapphire’s expression, platinum and white gold offering a contemporary, couture sensibility that emphasizes the stone’s brilliance, while yellow or rose gold lend a softer, more vintage mien that highlights the gem’s green warmth. The absence of enhancement in this sapphire elevates its desirability for collectors who value natural, untreated gems, and the Madagascar origin gives the stone a story of provenance that is both exotic and esteemed. When set by The Natural Sapphire Company, this gem becomes part of a curated legacy, an heirloom in the making that will reflect the wearer’s discerning eye and worldly confidence. Our atelier approach to design will allow for exacting choices in cut orientation, mounting silhouette, and accent selection, ensuring that the final piece is balanced visually and ergonomically, and that the sapphire’s mixed brilliant facets are positioned to maximize light return and visual depth.

Owning this 2.49 carat Madagascar sapphire is an assertion of refined taste, a private triumph that signals sophistication without ostentation.
