1.12 Ct. Greenish Yellow Sapphire from Madagascar

In the quiet world of rare gemstones, this exceptional greenish yellow sapphire from Madagascar is a restrained proclamation of elegance and exclusivity, offered by The Natural Sapphire Company. We present a single, transparent emerald cut sapphire weighing 1.12 carats, with dimensions of 6.59 by 5.01 by 3.20 millimeters, a clarity graded as very very slightly included at eye level, a medium intense color intensity, and an excellent polish. There has been absolutely no enhancement to alter its natural beauty, and the stone arrives to you as it was formed deep within the earth, unretouched and honest. Pieces like this do not appear often in our inventory, and when they do they move quickly to discerning collectors and connoisseurs who understand the rare pleasure of owning an unenhanced gem with a distinct personality and a provenance that can be traced to the mineral rich soils of Madagascar.

The emerald cut, with its stepped facets and broad pavilion planes, gives this sapphire a composed and architectural kind of brilliance that differs from the scintillation found in brilliant cuts. The greenish yellow hue is medium intense, a perfect balance that reads as both luminous and sophisticated, allowing the stone to command attention without shouting for it. Where more common gemstones such as citrine and peridot often present a simpler, single tone brightness, and where many yellow sapphires can lean toward overt saturation or a flat, one dimensional appearance, this Madagascar sapphire achieves a layered color presence. Subtle flashes of greener undertones play with warmer yellow highlights as the stone moves, creating depth and a living quality that is rare in stones of this size. The very very slightly included clarity grade, visible only under careful inspection, ensures that light travels cleanly through the stone, producing a clarity and transparency that elevates every facet and emphasizes the superb polish the cutter has achieved.

When you compare the brilliance of this emerald cut greenish yellow sapphire to more common gems, its distinction becomes clear. Diamonds, with their exceptional dispersion and high refractive index, are famous for fire and scintillation, but they do not wear color in the same way that colored sapphires do. This sapphire offers a sustained, velvety brilliance that is less about iridescent sparks and more about luminous color saturation and elegant flashes along the step facets. Against quartz based gems such as citrine, which are charming and accessible, a natural sapphire from Madagascar exhibits greater refractive brilliance and a denser, more durable feel when worn. Peridot often shows a lively green, but it can lack the refined depth and polish found in a finely cut sapphire. This stone is not merely bright, it is composed, it holds color with authority, and it returns light with a calm, polished reflection that reads as high end and timeless. Because it is unheated and untreated, the color you see is authentic, stable, and exceedingly desirable to collectors who prize natural formation over laboratory alteration.

Owning this gem places you among a select group who appreciate provenance, rarity, and impeccable finishing. The Natural Sapphire Company carefully sources stones of character, and this sapphire, from Madagascar, embodies that commitment to ethical and expert selection. The excellent polish ensures that every facet edge is crisp, producing those long, mirror like flashes that make the emerald cut so elegant for colored stones, and the moderate table and depth proportions, reflected in the stated dimensions, mean the stone sits with presence in a setting without overwhelming the wearer. For rings it offers a refined, architectural look, for pendants it hangs with confident brightness, and for bespoke jewelry it becomes the defining element around which a truly personal piece can be built. Consider warm gold settings that enhance the yellow notes, or cooler metals that bring the green to the fore, both options producing markedly different moods and both emphasizing the gem as a signature accent rather than a mere accessory.

We invite you to experience this unique greenish yellow sapphire through The Natural Sapphire Company, and to discuss custom settings and limited edition designs that will ensure the gem remains a singular possession. Because of its unenhanced nature and Madagascar origin, this stone appeals to collectors who understand the value of authentic rarity, and to those who want a wearable treasure that will endure in both style and substance. Our team is available to assist with setting recommendations, certification details, and bespoke design options that protect and showcase the gem for generations. This is not a mass produced offering, it is a rare, naturally fashioned jewel that speaks to connoisseurs who seek distinction, and when you acquire it you join a small, privileged circle of owners who appreciate what true rarity feels like in the hand and on the skin.
