1.26 Ct. Yellowish Green Sapphire from Australia

This transparent 1.26 carat cushion shape yellowish green sapphire measures 6.32 by 5.70 by 4.78 millimeters, and is executed in a refined step cut that emphasizes color saturation and internal structure rather than scintillation. The cushion outline with its broad, parallel facet rows on both crown and pavilion produces a large open table and graduated steps that deliver a deep, even face up color described as intense in intensity. Faceting precision is evident in tight facet junctions and balanced symmetry, and the excellent polish ensures clean light return and crisp facet reflections across the crown. This sapphire is entirely natural with no enhancement, originating from Australia, and is presented by The Natural Sapphire Company as a collector grade gem that showcases its provenance through optical behavior and craftsmanship.

Clarity is graded very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means minor internal features are present but they integrate into the gem without compromising its transparency or color depth. These inclusions can include fine needle like silk, minute crystal inclusions, subtle growth zoning and delicate feathers, each oriented and patterned in a way that functions as a unique internal fingerprint. Under the step cut the broad facets reveal these features as character marks that map the stone s growth history and can assist in origin verification and identification. The step faceting purposely exposes growth zoning and pleochroic shifts in a controlled manner, so that inclusions contribute to a three dimensional sense of depth and do not distract from the intense yellowish green hue. Because there has been no treatment, the inclusion pattern is a natural certificate of authenticity, and The Natural Sapphire Company can supply detailed imaging and provenance information on request. For practical use the stone s dimensions and cut favor a setting that displays the table and color face up, while judicious mounting choices can position pavilion light and metal accents to either subtly mask or intentionally highlight the inclusions as signature characteristics of a natural Australian sapphire.
