0.82 Ct. Pinkish Purple Sapphire from Madagascar

If you have been searching for an engagement stone that combines rarity, personality, and uncompromising natural beauty, this transparent 0.82 carat oval pinkish purple sapphire from Madagascar answers that search with confidence, The Natural Sapphire Company presents this gem as a rare example of color and clarity in a size that is increasingly difficult to find. At 6.84 x 5.09 x 2.84 mm, the oval proportions are perfectly balanced for a center stone that looks substantial on the finger without overwhelming classic settings, and the mixed brilliant cut is designed to maximize lively scintillation and face up size. The gem shows a medium intense pinkish purple hue that reads as delicate and distinctly colored in daylight, and the excellent polish ensures broad flashes of sparkle across the table and facets. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, meaning the stone appears clean and gem quality to the unaided eye while retaining the natural characteristics collectors prize. Importantly this sapphire is unenhanced, a detail that sets it apart from many market offerings, and its origin from Madagascar lends another layer of desirability, since Malagasy sapphires are admired for their unusual and attractive color notes.

Rarity in both size and color is the defining quality of this stone, and that is precisely what makes it a perfect solution for buyers who want something uncommon and authentic. Pinkish purple sapphires in the 0.7 to 1.0 carat range that combine a true, even medium intense color, clean appearance at eye level, and no heat or other enhancement, are exceptional on today’s market. Many similar stones you will encounter are either smaller in weight, more heavily treated to achieve stronger color, or paler and less saturated when seen in hand. This sapphire stands apart because it achieves an ideal balance, offering a noticeable presence with 0.82 carats while maintaining an elegant, wearable dimension. The mixed brilliant cut enhances perceived size and light return, so when set, the gem will read larger and, crucially, will display lively color and sparkle from most viewing angles. Collectors looking for a natural, untreated pinkish purple sapphire from a reputable origin will immediately recognize the scarcity value, and for someone planning an engagement or special commission, this stone closes the gap between conventional choices and something truly personal and memorable.

As you imagine this sapphire in a design, consider settings that showcase the oval silhouette and allow light to enter freely from the pavilion, such as a classic four prong solitaire, a delicate halo that amplifies color contrast, or a low profile bezel that protects while preserving brilliance. The Natural Sapphire Company is happy to advise on metal choices that flatter the pinkish purple tone, with warm rose gold offering a romantic enhancement, and platinum or white gold providing a crisp, modern contrast. We can also discuss setting styles and finger scale, the gem’s measurements and mixed brilliant cutting make it versatile for rings, pendants, or bespoke pieces. Because this stone is natural, transparent, and unenhanced, it serves both as a wearable heirloom and as an investment piece for a collector who understands that true rarity is not only about carat weight but about the confluence of honest origin, untouched treatment, pleasing color, and eye clean clarity. If your quest has been for a sapphire that stands apart from common options, this Madagascar pinkish purple, 0.82 carat oval sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is designed to be the conclusion of that search, a gem that reassures with provenance, delights with color, and endures with natural beauty.
