1.17 Ct. Green Sapphire from Montana

A single, luminous green heart from the earth unfolds before you, a 1.17 carat fancy shape green sapphire that seems to hold a secret glade within its depths, transparent as morning air. At 8.80 x 7.46 x 3.42 mm this gem wears its unusual proportions like a whispered promise, the step cut sculpting planes that catch and reflect light in measured, graceful pulses. Its medium light color intensity offers a soft, verdant hush, not loud or showy, but intimate and enduring, a color that reads as fresh leaves by a mountain stream when sunlight lingers. With a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level the stone keeps a purity that feels honest and real, tiny internal markings only adding to its character, like the growth rings in a beloved tree. The excellent polish gives every facet a satin to glass finish, letting the sapphire breathe and respond to light with calm, composed brilliance, and because this gem is completely natural with no enhancement and born of Montana soil it carries the quiet authority of a place where time moves slowly and beauty is earned.

Over years this sapphire will continue to captivate because it is built to last as well as to enchant, a durable treasure whose resistance to everyday wear means the memories you attach to it will not fade with time. The step cut lends a classic architecture that reveals new reflections as you move, moments of green that can be at once tender and surprising, making each glance feel like a rediscovery. Its honest origin and untreated nature make it a gem you can trust to age with grace, a piece that will patina only with the stories of a life lived, never with artificial alteration. At The Natural Sapphire Company we celebrate such stones that marry character and resilience, offering a jewel that stands as both an emblem and a companion, a small, steadfast witness to anniversaries, quiet mornings, promises kept, and love that deepens like the color of a sapphire under changing light.
