0.97 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Madagascar

One beautiful transparent 0.97 carat oval shape pink sapphire, measuring 6.63 x 5.29 x 3.22 mm, presents a refined and wearable scale for everyday and special occasion jewelry. This gem is cut in a mixed brilliant style, combining a brilliant faceted crown with precision pavilion cuts, and displays a depth proportion of about 54 percent, a proportion that supports lively light return while preserving color saturation. The clarity is graded slightly included when evaluated at eye level, meaning small inclusions are present but do not significantly interrupt transparency or detract from the overall brilliance. The color shows a medium intensity pink, a desirable balance between delicate pastel and vivid tone, and the polish is excellent, which ensures crisp facet junctions and maximum mirror like reflections. This stone has been heat treated, a widely accepted and stable enhancement in the trade that improves color uniformity and minimizes the appearance of residual inclusions, and its documented origin is Madagascar, a recognized source for attractive pink sapphires.

The geometric faceting of this oval mixed brilliant sapphire is designed to produce maximum light play, with the crown facets dispersing light into spectral flashes and the pavilion geometry reflecting returns through the table for strong brilliance and scintillation. The mixed brilliant approach enhances both fire and sparkle, while the oval outline focuses color along the length, producing flashes of pink that animate with movement. For the educated buyer, several tangible value factors make this stone noteworthy, it sits just under one carat which is a practical threshold in pricing, its transparency and excellent polish are technical indicators of high visual appeal, and the slightly included clarity grade offers a balance of natural character without compromising optical performance. Sourced from Madagascar and sold with full disclosure of heat treatment, this sapphire aligns with rigorous trade standards and provenance expectations. At The Natural Sapphire Company we prioritize accurate gem information and thoughtful cutting to maximize light return, making this 0.97 carat oval pink sapphire an appealing choice for a refined setting where geometry driven brilliance and reliable material integrity are required.
