0.94 Ct. Pinkish Purple Sapphire from Madagascar

This exceptional, transparent 0.94 carat pear shape pinkish purple sapphire measures 7.51 x 4.93 x 3.58 mm, and it has been expertly fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut to maximize brilliance and scintillation. The clarity is graded very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, providing an eye clean appearance that allows the intense color to dominate without distraction. The polish is excellent, and this stone is completely natural with no enhancement, originating from Madagascar, a locality known for producing fine colored sapphires with attractive, pure tones. At 0.94 carat the proportions are well balanced for a pear shape, offering elegant presence in a ring or pendant while retaining everyday wearability thanks to corundum hardness nine on the Mohs scale.

For the educated buyer this sapphire is notable for several technical qualities that underpin its value. The intense color intensity combined with its pinkish purple hue is relatively rare among unheated Madagascar sapphires, and the mixed brilliant cut is designed to deliver strong light return and lively face up appearance. The very very slightly included clarity grade indicates minimal, well distributed inclusions that do not interfere with transparency or brilliance, while the excellent polish ensures crisp facet junctions and optimal optical performance. Because this sapphire has not been subjected to heat or other treatments, it represents a natural material in its original state, an important consideration for collectors and connoisseurs who prioritize authenticity and long term stability.

The natural beauty of this sapphire will continue to captivate over the years, as its intense hue and lively brilliance age gracefully with proper care. Set in a secure mounting that protects the pointed end of the pear shape, such as a bezel or a well designed prong setting, the stone can be enjoyed daily with minimal risk, and occasional gentle cleaning will restore its full sparkle.
