3.01 Ct. Green Sapphire from Tanzania

There are stones that arrive like a secret, and this green sapphire arrives like a letter carried by summer wind. We present a transparent 3.01 carat cushion shape green sapphire from the storied lands of Tanzania, a gem that holds both earth and sky within its depths. Its hue is medium intense, a verdant song that leans toward the lush heart of a forest just after rain, and it speaks with a clarity that is very slightly included when examined at eye level, a gentle reminder that it formed deep within the planet over millennia. The Natural Sapphire Company offers this sapphire exactly as nature intended, with no enhancement, a truthful jewel whose color and character are entirely its own. The stone measures 7.77 by 7.47 by 5.55 millimeters, a comfortable and graceful presence for an engagement ring or a cherished pendant, a size that feels intimate yet substantial, an invitation to both touch and behold.

The cut is where the sapphire learns to speak with light, and this gem wears a mixed brilliant cut upon its cushion silhouette like a poem written in facets. The crown facets are arranged to gather daylight and room light and then to offer it back with a cadence of scintillation and flash, while the pavilion facets are sculpted to channel light inward and then to return it to the viewer as luminous green fire. Because the pavilion angles and table proportions have been thoughtfully balanced, the mixed brilliant style amplifies both brightness and depth, allowing the medium intense color to appear saturated when viewed face on, and to reveal an inner play of tones when the gem turns. The excellent polish permits each facet to be a mirror, every plane crisp and clean, so that rays of light glide and pirouette across the surface rather than being muddied by dullness. The result is a lively, breathing gem that responds to movement, an intimate choreography in which every shift of hand creates a new phrase of light.

Clarity too becomes part of the stone s story, for the very slightly included grade at eye level tells of authenticity rather than imperfection. These minute inclusions are like moss in a glade, small and integrated, adding character rather than distraction, and the mixed brilliant cut has the thoughtful geometry to conceal or integrate them so that transparency sings. When set in the right mounting, the sapphire will glow as if lit from within, inclusions camouflaged by facet reflections and by the gem s natural depth. In practical terms this means the wearer can enjoy brilliance and drama without the worry of visible flaws, it means a confident presence on the hand or at the throat, it means a jewel that feels honest and alive. The absence of enhancement amplifies this truth, because what you see is what the earth gave, preserved by careful cutting and superb polish.

Imagine the moment you slip this cushion green sapphire into a setting, The Natural Sapphire Company standing with you as your guide. Picture candlelight pooling against the crown, each facet releasing tender pinpricks of green, or imagine a sunlit walk where the stone gathers daylight like a small canopy, scattering it back in green warmth. The 3.01 carat weight is an emotional measure as much as a physical one, it is enough to be noticed, to anchor a story, to become the heirloom that begins with a promise. We invite you to consider settings that allow light to enter and to dance freely, prong settings that embrace rather than obscure, open backed designs that let the pavilion breathe, or bespoke creations that pair metal and stone in lifelong conversation. For those who cherish provenance and purity, this Tanzanian sapphire offers both, a living color born of place, cut with intent, polished to a finish that honors every facet of its existence. If you would like further photographs, a video of the stone under different lights, or a consultation about settings and mountings, The Natural Sapphire Company is here to walk with you from first glimpse to final setting, ensuring that this green sapphire becomes the luminous center of your most treasured moments.
