1.42 Ct. Green Sapphire from Montana

This 1.42 carat radiant shape green sapphire from Montana exemplifies the balance of weight, color, and cut that discerning buyers seek, The Natural Sapphire Company offers this transparent gem with precise dimensions of 5.86 x 5.85 x 4.50 mm, a radiant cut that maximizes face up presence, a clarity grade of slightly included evaluated at eye level, medium color intensity, and an excellent polish, importantly this sapphire has undergone no enhancement. The 1.42 carat weight is a defining characteristic, because in natural green sapphires each tenth of a carat can substantially affect rarity and market value, a stone above one carat moves from being a modest accent gem to a primary focal stone for solitaire and bespoke settings, and in this size the combination of a well balanced pavilion depth and the radiant cut yields an impressive surface area that reads larger than many round stones of comparable weight. Montana origin contributes to the gemological story, as Montana sapphires are known for their delicate greens and natural appeal, and an untreated example at this weight and with good transparency is notably scarce in the current market.

For the educated buyer who evaluates value through factors and provenance, this sapphire offers clear reasons for consideration, the slightly included clarity grade indicates natural inclusions visible to the eye in certain orientations, yet the excellent polish and thoughtful cutting reduce the visual impact of those inclusions while enhancing brilliance and light return, the medium color intensity provides versatility for jewelry design, offering enough saturation to convey a true green character while remaining adaptable to different metal tones. The absence of heat or other enhancement elevates both rarity and long term desirability, since untreated Montana green sapphires are sought after by collectors and connoisseurs, The Natural Sapphire Company certifies origin and treatment history for transparency, and we recommend viewing the stone in handset lighting or requesting additional imaging and certification to assess face up color and suitability for your intended setting.
