A sunlit whisper of the forest, this yellowish green cushion sapphire feels like a secret plucked from the heart of Madagascar, polished into a perfect confidante for the one who keeps your promises. At 0.80 carat, and measuring 5.18 by 4.88 by 3.65 mm, it carries presence without pretense, a gem that sits gently yet decisively upon the hand. The mixed brilliant cut scatters light like a constellation collapsed into a single, luminous beat, and the intense color intensity makes each flash of green and gold feel like a private dawn. Clarity is described as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, a testament to its natural birth and a reminder that true beauty is made of tiny, honest imperfections. The polish is excellent, the finish so refined that each facet sings, and with no enhancement this sapphire comes to you as the earth intended it, unaltered in spirit and origin.
When you gaze into its depth you will find layers of green that flirt with sunlight and shadow, a palette that moves from pale lime to deep olive as if a painter used the tropics themselves for pigment. The cushion shape gives it a soft geometry, a blend of classic and contemporary that pairs elegantly with a slender bezel or a delicate prong setting. On the finger it reads intimate and modern, a jewel that keeps its secrets close yet reveals its personality with every gesture. Because it is transparent and finely cut, the interior reflections create an inner garden of light, a small world where fire and forest meet. This is a stone that invites touch and quiet conversation, a gem for those who prize meaning over show, and for those who wish to carry a piece of Madagascar close to the heart.
Hardness and wearability are essential considerations for any treasured piece, and this sapphire excels where it matters most. Sapphire ranks 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond at 10, which means it is exceptionally resistant to scratches and abrasion when compared to many other gemstones. For context, topaz sits around 8 on the Mohs scale and quartz about 7, so this sapphire offers a notable step up in everyday durability. That robustness makes it an excellent choice for an engagement ring or a piece intended for frequent wear, because it will keep its polish and smooth facets through the cadence of daily life. While sapphires are hard and durable, they are not indestructible, so mindful care will preserve their glow, such as avoiding hard knocks and routine professional checks of any setting, simple acts that ensure the gem continues to catch light as gracefully as it does now.
Sourced from Madagascar and presented with the integrity you expect from The Natural Sapphire Company, this cushion yellowish green sapphire is as much a story as it is an adornment. Its unenhanced nature preserves provenance, and its honest inclusions and luminous color speak to a singular origin and a conscientious journey from mine to master cutter to you. Imagine slipping it into a hand wrought setting, or letting it be the quiet hero of a custom ring that recounts your most meaningful chapters. We offer the expertise and care to help you realize that vision, whether by advising on settings that complement its mixed brilliant cut or by sharing design options that enhance its intimate scale. This little green star is ready to become a daily companion, a witness to new beginnings, and a timeless emblem of devotion, entrusted to you with the care and commitment of The Natural Sapphire Company.
