1.13 Ct. Pinkish Purple Sapphire from Madagascar

This exceptional transparent 1.13 carat cushion shape pinkish purple sapphire presents itself as a rare, personal treasure, and it is offered exclusively through The Natural Sapphire Company, which sources only the most distinguished natural material. The gem measures 6.78 by 5.35 by 3.50 mm, and has been faceted in a mixed brilliant cut to maximize its inner fire and scintillation. Its clarity grade is slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a mark that confirms its natural character while allowing the surface and cut to sing with light. The color intensity is intense, the polish excellent, and the stone is completely natural with no enhancement, a combination that places it among the most desirable specimens an informed collector can acquire. There are few stones of this subtleness and power available, and ownership is reserved for those who appreciate both provenance and purity.

In hue and tone this Madagascar pinkish purple takes a place of its own when compared to gemstones from other famous locations, the color leans more violet than the soft, tea rose pinks typical of many Ceylon stones, yet it retains more warmth than the cool cornflower notes associated with Kashmir sapphires, resulting in a balance that feels both regal and intimate. Compared to Thai and Australian sapphires which often present darker, inky tones, this gem offers a brighter, more luminous saturation that opens up in different lights, while compared to Burmese spinel and Mozambique rubellite it remains distinctly sapphire in its silk and depth, with less overt red bias and a clearer violet resonance. Madagascar continues to produce some of the most compelling unheated sapphires available, and this piece exemplifies that rarity, a stone whose presence is quietly commanding and utterly exclusive. For the collector who seeks a singular, natural example that stands apart from the familiar signatures of other mining regions, this pinkish purple cushion sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is a rare invitation to own a gemstone of true distinction.
