1.11 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Madagascar

This 1.11 carat pear shape pink sapphire from Madagascar is an exceptional example of what informed buyers seek in a fine colored gemstone. We specify the physical details so you can quickly assess its suitability for a particular commission or collection, the stone measures 8.33 x 5.48 x 3.48 mm, it is pear shaped with a mixed brilliant cut, and it presents as transparent with an intense color intensity and an excellent polish. Clarity has been evaluated as very very slightly included at eye level, which means the stone reads clean to most viewers and retains strong visual appeal while offering the character and individuality that natural gemstones possess. The mixed brilliant cut is chosen to maximize light return in a pear outline, balancing scintillation across the pavilion and crown facets and preserving weight and face up size. The finishing polish is excellent, which enhances the apparent depth of color and ensures smooth facet junctions that are important for both appearance and setting security.

From a gemological perspective this sapphire demonstrates the attributes that educated buyers prize, starting with color, which is the primary value driver in pink sapphires. The vivid pink hue expressed here is driven by trace chromium and moderated by minor amounts of iron and titanium, creating an intense saturation that reads strongly under typical daylight and artificial lighting. The clarity grade of very very slightly included indicates only modest internal features that do not detract from brilliance or durability, and because sapphires are 9 on the Mohs scale they are suitable for everyday wear in rings and other jewelry that see frequent use. The stone has been heat treated, which is a broadly accepted and stable enhancement in the trade, used to optimize tone and saturation while improving overall transparency. Heat treatment is permanent under normal wearing conditions, and because of The Natural Sapphire Companys commitment to full disclosure, you are provided with transparent information about this enhancement so that you can make a confident, informed decision.

The origin, craftsmanship, and heritage of this sapphire further define its appeal. Madagascar has emerged over recent decades as a premier source for fine sapphires, producing material that often rivals more traditionally known localities in purity and brilliance. Sapphires have a long cultural history, they have been used for centuries in devotional objects, royal regalia, and as symbols of protection, wisdom, and fidelity. A pink sapphire in a pear shape carries that lineage into contemporary jewelry, offering a blend of classical symbolism and modern aesthetics. For collectors and connoisseurs considering investment quality and provenance, The Natural Sapphire Company brings rigorous sourcing standards, gemological assessment, and provenance documentation to every piece, ensuring that the stone you acquire not only meets high aesthetic and physical standards but also aligns with ethical and traceability expectations.
