This listing describes one transparent yellowish green sapphire, weighing 1.56 carats. The stone is fashioned into a round shape with a mixed brilliant cut, and its dimensions are 7.16 by 7.13 by 4.12 millimeters. Color is intense, presenting a balanced yellow green hue that interacts with light to reveal both lively flashes and a deeper secondary tone in the pavilion. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the gem exhibits an excellent polish that contributes to crisp facet junctions and clean light return. The sapphire has been enhanced by heat treatment, a widely accepted practice that stabilizes and intensifies color, and its origin is Australia. These technical characteristics are stated precisely to assist assessment of suitability for fine jewellery, lapidary projects, or bespoke settings.
The mixed brilliant cut employed in this sapphire is selected to optimize optical performance while preserving weight and proportions. The crown faceting works in concert with the pavilion arrangement to concentrate and project color through the table, producing an appearance of depth and vitality when viewed face up. The near equal measurements across the girdle ensure symmetry typical of high quality round stones, and the pavilion depth supports a pleasing balance between brilliance and color saturation. Excellent polish enhances the visual continuity across facets and improves resistance to surface wear, making the stone appropriate for ring settings or pendants that will be worn frequently, while the transparent bodycolor supports versatile design choices from bezel mounts to open prong settings.
Sapphires carry a long heritage of use in personal ornament and ceremonial regalia, and this Australian yellowish green example is consistent with that tradition. Historically, sapphires have been selected for signet rings, reliquary elements, and pieces intended to denote rank and permanence, with different cultures valuing variants of the stone for their unique color and durability. Green and yellow green tones have been favored for their association with renewal and nature in certain decorative arts traditions, and in more recent times such hues have been incorporated into modern heirloom designs as an alternative to the classical blue sapphire. Australian sapphire production has contributed significantly to the global gem market since the nineteenth century, and material from that region is recognized for its distinct tonal range and reliable crystal quality. Presenting this gem within that lineage underscores both its material integrity and its potential to serve as a meaningful component in a crafted jewellery object intended to be passed between generations.
The Natural Sapphire Company documents this gem with clear technical details and full disclosure of enhancement and origin, to support informed selection and appraisal. For practical considerations, the stone may be secured in a range of settings that protect the girdle and pavilion while maximizing face up color, and routine care involves avoiding harsh cleaners and high heat exposure beyond the disclosed treatment. A full report is available on request to confirm the described parameters, and our gem specialists can advise on mounting styles that preserve the stones proportions and aesthetic intent. This Australian yellowish green sapphire offers a combination of precise dimensions, intense color, and refined finishing, consistent with traditional uses of sapphire in distinguished jewellery, and represents a stable and attractive choice for custom commissions or refined collections.
