A singular vision of refined taste, this pear shaped pink sapphire weighs 1.60 carat, and measures 9.01 x 6.12 x 3.91 mm, a size that commands presence without ostentation. Its transparent body allows the subtleties of its medium light pink color intensity to bloom with each movement, while its immaculate provenance from Africa speaks to a story of place and provenance. Unenhanced, pure, and utterly natural, this stone carries an authenticity that is increasingly rare, a jewel for those who seek something genuine and rare, rather than something fashioned by artifice. The very slightly included clarity grade, evaluated at eye level, is a testament to its natural origin, offering character without compromising its luminous transparency, and the excellent polish ensures every facet greets the light with polished perfection.
What sets this sapphire apart is its masterful mixed brilliant cut, a geometric orchestration of facets conceived to coax the utmost light play from the stone. The pear silhouette offers a delicate union of rounded eminence and tapered grace, while the mixed brilliant faceting marries the scintillating fire of the brilliant cut with the precise geometry of step like pavilion facets, creating an effect of scintillation and depth that is both lively and elegant. Each facet has been positioned to capture, refract, and return light in a ballet of brightness and soft flashes of pink, so that the stone presents a lively table full of mirrored facets, a crown that breathes with flickers of light, and a pavilion that channels brilliance back into the observer. The geometric faceting amplifies contrast and harmony in equal measure, producing a gem that seems to change from every angle, revealing subtle veils of color, and a lively, luxurious inner fire.
In the hand, or set within a custom creation, this sapphire reads as an object of achievement, a jewel for someone whose tastes favor the refined and the singular. The pear shape and proportions make it particularly desirable as a centerpiece in an elegant solitaire, a refined halo, or a bespoke pendant that allows the symmetry and sparkle to speak. The dimensions of 9.01 x 6.12 x 3.91 mm provide a generous presence on the finger or at the throat, while remaining supremely wearable. The excellent polish accentuates smooth facet junctions, and the very slightly included clarity grade contributes to the gemstone story without detracting from the overall luminosity. For the discerning collector or the person seeking a statement of subtlety and status, this sapphire offers both rarity and restraint, a balance that is the hallmark of timeless luxury.
