0.85 Ct. Yellowish Green Sapphire from Madagascar

This 0.85 carat yellowish green sapphire began its story beneath the red soils of Madagascar, where the island winds and mineral rich pegmatites nurtured trace elements that produced a green with a warm yellow whisper. Mined by hand and responsibly sourced, the rough was chosen for transparency and color potential, then sent to our cutting studio where skilled hands shaped it into a refined emerald cut measuring 7.77 by 3.99 by 2.62 millimeters. The long facets of the emerald cut were selected to showcase the gem s linear glow and to balance its medium intense color intensity, while an excellent polish brings out a soft internal sheen. Evaluated at eye level the clarity is slightly included, evidence of the stone s natural origin and character, and the sapphire has been heat treated to stabilize and enhance its tone, a standard and lasting enhancement that preserves the gem s beauty for everyday wear. At The Natural Sapphire Company we tell this gem s journey as a way to connect you to the place it came from, the hands that shaped it, and the life it will lead once set into jewelry.

Comparing this Madagascar yellowish green to sapphires from other famous locations helps place its personality. Against a Ceylon yellow sapphire from Sri Lanka this stone reads greener and more botanical, where Ceylon yellows tend to sit brighter and purer on the lemon spectrum, this gem finds the meeting point between yellow and green for a lively, living tone. Compared to Australian green sapphires which often show deep forest and inky greens, this Madagascar stone is lighter and more transparent, with a fresher mid tone that reveals subtle yellow flashes under warm light. Against Montana sapphires the difference is also distinct, Montana pieces often carry steely blue green or teal notes and a cooler temperament, whereas this Madagascar sapphire leans warmer and more saturated in the green channel, ideal for settings that welcome a vibrant yet natural look. The emerald cut amplifies its color direction and makes it a superb choice for an elegant ring or a minimalist pendant, where the 7.77 by 3.99 by 2.62 millimeter profile can be appreciated from every angle.
