This transparent green sapphire weighs 5.02 carats, and presents a refined cushion shape with dimensions of 9.74 x 8.10 x 6.67 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style to balance scintillation and color saturation. The stone exhibits vivid color intensity, a deep green tone with lively internal reflections, and an eye level clarity graded as very very slightly included, which indicates exceptional transparency and minimal visual interruptions to the field of view. The pavilion angles and mixed brilliant facet arrangement create strong light return and color dispersion, and the gem is finished with an excellent polish that emphasizes both its surface luster and facet definition. Origin Madagascar, enhancement heat treated, evaluated and presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, the piece is a durable gem suitable for daily wear with appropriate setting protection, and its 5.02 carat weight delivers a substantial presence while remaining practical for a variety of jewelry designs.
When comparing this green sapphire to celebrated gemstones in history, its combination of vivid hue, high clarity at eye level, and thoughtful cutting invites associations with the finest examples of colored stones rather than direct likeness to any single famous gem. Its clarity and brilliant cut recall the visual purity prized in historic blue sapphires such as those once favored by European collections, while its commanding color presence and depth of tone evoke the visual impact associated with legendary stones like the Hope Diamond, translated into a green sapphire context. In relation to notable emeralds from storied collections, this sapphire offers a comparable richness of green, with the added advantages of sapphire durability and a crystalline transparency that is often more attainable in corundum than in beryl. The origin of Madagascar contributes to its uniqueness, as that region produces a spectrum of green sapphires with distinct dendritic undertones and vibrant saturation, and the heat treatment applied here is a stable, widely accepted enhancement that optimizes color without compromising structural integrity. For collectors and designers seeking a gem that blends historical gravitas, practical durability, and modern gemological quality, this 5.02 carat cushion green sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company stands out for its balanced proportions, excellent polish, vivid color, and exceptional eye level clarity.
