0.88 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Tanzania

This 0.88 carat oval pink sapphire, measuring 6.26 x 5.07 x 3.19 mm, presents a balanced combination of size and precision cutting, with a mixed brilliant cut that enhances face up brilliance and light return. The gem is transparent, carrying a clarity grade described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and it displays a medium intense pink color that is evenly distributed across the table. The polish is excellent, and importantly, the stone is unenhanced, with no heat treatment or other enhancements reported. Origin is Tanzania, and this provenance contributes to the stone s character while remaining clearly documented. Taken together, the dimensions, cut, clarity, color intensity, and absence of enhancement position this sapphire as a finely preserved example of a natural, untreated pink sapphire suitable for both fine jewelry and collectors who prioritize natural state and optical performance.

From an investment perspective, this sapphire carries attributes that have historically correlated with premium and durable value. Untreated pink sapphires with strong, evenly saturated color and high transparency tend to be rarer in the market than their heat treated counterparts, and rarity is a key driver of long term appreciation. Clarity that is very slightly included at eye level, combined with an excellent polish and a classic oval mixed brilliant cut, supports sustained desirability because the stone performs well visually while retaining natural integrity. Market dynamics for colored gemstones are influenced by provenance, treatment status, and documented grading, and The Natural Sapphire Company provides provenance and handling documentation to support future liquidity. Prospective appreciation is not guaranteed, and price movement can be cyclical, however for buyers with a multi year horizon, properly documented, untreated pink sapphires of this quality have shown a capacity to maintain and in many cases improve in market value, particularly as supply of gem quality, unenhanced material remains constrained. For those considering acquisition, independent laboratory grading and careful storage and insured ownership are recommended measures to preserve and to support any future transfer or resale.
