1.17 Ct. Yellowish Brown Sapphire from Madagascar

This exquisite Madagascar sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is a study in refined restraint and natural allure, a treasure for the collector who prizes rarity and authenticity. Weighing 1.17 carats and fashioned into a striking trillion shape, its precise dimensions of 6.29 x 6.93 x 3.58 mm confer a compact yet commanding presence. The gem displays a transparent, yellowish brown hue of medium color intensity that glows warmly under light, while an excellent polish amplifies its scintillation and crown fire. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is slightly included, an honest hallmark of a natural stone that adds character rather than diminishes its radiance. Importantly, this sapphire is untreated, free from enhancements, offering a genuinely natural color and finish that connoisseurs recognize and desire. Sourced from Madagascar, a locality celebrated for producing sapphires with distinctive tones, this piece is a refined expression of provenance and taste, perfect for a bespoke ring or a singular pendant that announces the wearer’s discerning eye.

Beyond its beauty, this sapphire is built for longevity, a jewel you can wear with confidence. Sapphire ranks nine on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond at ten, and markedly more hard-wearing than topaz at eight and quartz at seven. That elevated hardness makes this stone exceptionally resistant to scratches and daily wear, ensuring its polished facets remain crisp and the trillion cut retains its captivating geometry over time. For added security and to highlight its sharp triangular silhouette, settings such as a secure three-prong or a soft bezel can protect its delicate points while showcasing the gem’s clean lines. Basic care is simple, requiring gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and occasional professional inspection to maintain the setting. Owning this Madagascar sapphire is more than an acquisition; it is an affirmation of refined taste and a commitment to timeless elegance, a jewel from The Natural Sapphire Company that transforms everyday moments into statements of luxury.
