1.00 Carat | Natural Pink Sapphire | Madagascar
A distinctive natural purplish-pink sapphire from Madagascar, weighing exactly 1.00 carat and accompanied by a GFCO gemstone identification report confirming its natural corundum identity, Madagascar origin, and importantly, no heat and no treatment.
The gemstone displays a sophisticated combination of rich pink, raspberry and purple-pink tones. Its elongated octagonal step cut creates broad geometric reflections rather than the smaller flashes associated with brilliant cuts, giving the stone an elegant architectural appearance.
Natural internal characteristics remain visible within the gemstone, particularly toward the ends and perimeter. These inclusions have been intentionally represented rather than concealed and contribute to the individual character of this natural sapphire.
Madagascar has become one of the world’s important sources of fine sapphire, producing corundum across an extraordinary spectrum of colors. While heating is routinely used within the sapphire market to modify color and clarity, this specimen’s report states “NO HEAT - NO TREATMENT,” preserving its naturally occurring color and characteristics.
