1.52 Ct. Purplish Pink Sapphire from Madagascar

This example of The Natural Sapphire Company craftsmanship is a transparent purplish pink sapphire weighing 1.52 carats, presented in a cushion shape with precise measurements of 7.70 x 6.15 x 3.59 mm. The stone features a mixed brilliant cut and an excellent polish, delivering a refined balance between broad, silky flashes and lively scintillation. The color is vivid in intensity with a purplish pink hue that is both distinct and balanced across the table, and the sapphire is natural with no enhancement. Origin is Madagascar, a source known for producing sapphires with lively color and appealing crystal quality. Clarity has been graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a practical assessment that reflects minimal internal features visible to a typical observer, while the overall material remains highly transparent and clean in appearance.

The mixed brilliant cut used for this cushion sapphire combines facets that emphasize both depth of color and controlled dispersion of light. The design integrates a pavilion facet arrangement that returns light toward the viewer, and a crown layout that disperses it into broad, pleasing flashes. The dimensions result in a depth proportion of approximately fifty two percent based on the average of length and width, a proportion that supports a balanced face up size and efficient light performance. Excellent polish on each facet ensures mirror like facet junctions and crisp facet outlines, so reflections remain sharp and cohesive when the gem is tilted or rotated. Collectively these cutting and finishing attributes produce a presentation that appears uniformly luminous and refined from every angle of inspection.

Clarity and transparency contribute directly to the sense of apparent flawlessness when the gem is viewed under normal wearing or display conditions. Although described as very slightly included at eye level, the inclusions are minor and do not interrupt the passage of light through the stone, nor do they create distracting contrasts within the purplish pink body color. The excellent polish minimizes surface disturbance, making any internal features much less apparent to the unaided eye. The vivid color intensity enhances apparent purity because higher saturation reduces the visual prominence of small inclusions, allowing the viewer to perceive continuous color and depth instead of interruptions. With no heat treatment or other enhancement, the color is an intrinsic characteristic of the material, and the Madagascar origin provides context for the natural color palette and crystal habit that contribute to the overall impression of clarity and brilliance.

In practical terms this sapphire is suited to a variety of settings where its balanced proportions and robust presence can be appreciated, including classic three stone or solitaire ring designs and pendant applications where the cushion outline reads as an elegant focal element. The combination of transparent material, precise mixed brilliant cutting, vivid purplish pink hue, and excellent polish yields a gem that presents an impression of flawless beauty to observers from most viewing angles, while retaining the verifiable natural qualities and minor internal features that define its authenticity. The Natural Sapphire Company offers this sapphire with clear documentation of its attributes, enabling a purchaser to understand how the measurable qualities translate into the visual performance and enduring appeal of the stone.
