Natural Blue Sapphire from Madagascar. Features an expansive 8mm+ face that gives the visual impact of a much heavier gemstone. Perfect for a custom low-profile ring design.
Gemstone HighlightsThis 1.60-carat Blue Sapphire from Madagascar is a unique "value stone." Expertly cut to maximize surface area, it features dimensions of 8.1 x 6.8 mm, which are typically found in sapphires weighing over 2.50 carats.
The Look: You get the prestige and visual impact of a large gemstone without paying for the extra carat weight hidden underneath.
The Color: A pleasing commercial blue with characteristic Madagascar silkiness.
Best For: This shallow cut (3.2mm depth) is ideal for designing a sleek, low-profile ring that sits close to the finger and won't snag on clothing—a common issue with deeper cut stones.
