3.08 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Madagascar

This beautiful transparent C.Dunaigre certified Pink 3.08 carat cushion shape pink sapphire measures 8.88 x 7.67 x 4.86 mm, and is fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut designed to balance face up brilliance with depth of color. The stone exhibits vivid color intensity, an excellent polish, and a clarity grade of very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means it presents an appealing clean appearance to the unaided eye while retaining natural internal characteristics that are common in fine sapphires. The gem has been heat treated, a widely accepted and stable enhancement that gently improves color and clarity while maintaining the integrity of the material. Origin is Madagascar, a respected source for high quality pink sapphires, and the C.Dunaigre certification included with this piece documents its identity and measured properties, providing provenance and technical assurance for the informed buyer.

Inclusions in this sapphire are not flaws to be hidden, they are unique identifiers that confirm its natural origin and add to its individual character. You may observe fine mineral crystals and delicate rutile silk and occasional pinpoint crystals within the pavilion and crown, features that form during the gem crystal growth and act like a fingerprint for appraisal and origin study. These internal features can subtly influence the stone behavior, sometimes scattering light in a way that enhances perceived color saturation and depth, and they are meaningful to a collector who values natural formation history. For the educated buyer, the combination of vivid color, a balanced mixed brilliant cut, the very slightly included clarity at eye level, excellent polish, and a documented Madagascan origin creates a strong value proposition, because it offers rarity of hue coupled with transparency and cut quality.
