6.19 Ct. Pink Sapphire from Madagascar

From the red earth of Madagascar to the refined light of the jeweler's lamp, this 6.19 carat cushion shape pink sapphire carries a story of place and patience, provenance and precision. Unearthed in a country renowned for producing some of the most vivid and pure sapphires of our time, the rough crystal was selected for its clarity and potential, then entrusted to master cutters who revealed its voice with a mixed brilliant cut and an excellent polish. The finished gem measures 12.48 by 9.82 by 4.88 millimeters, it is transparent, AGL certified, and astonishingly natural, no enhancement having altered its original color. At eye level it reads as very very slightly included, a clarity that allows light to pass and play without distraction, while its intense color intensity gives the pink a saturated, lively presence that feels both modern and timeless.

To understand its hue and tone, imagine the soft, romantic blush of a Sri Lankan pink sapphire, which often leans to delicate pastel, then find this Madagascan gem turning that whisper into a true voice. Where Sri Lankan stones may suggest a gentle sunrise, this sapphire delivers the warm, heart beating hue of a sunset that has gained depth without shifting toward orange. Compared to Burmese pinks, which can carry a warmer, orangey undertone, this Madagascar example reads cleaner and more purely pink, with a crisper mid tone that favors vibrancy over warmth. Compared to Tanzanian and Umba valley pinks, which sometimes trend toward purple or mauve, this gem keeps its identity firmly in the pink spectrum, bright and direct. The cushion shape and mixed brilliant faceting allow the intense color to breathe and scintillate, so the tone never feels heavy, it feels alive, and under different lights it moves from a glowing candy pink to a richly saturated rose, always transparent, always true. As you consider this sapphire for an engagement ring or a signature piece, know that its AGL certificate and its unheated state confirm a natural story from Madagascar to your hands, a story curated for you by The Natural Sapphire Company, a story meant to be worn and treasured.
