This sapphire displays an appealing combination of blue and green tones, creating a distinctive appearance that differs from traditional blue sapphire. Bluish green sapphires are appreciated for their ocean-inspired coloration, offering an interesting alternative for collectors and jewelry designers seeking less conventional sapphire colors.
Sapphire belongs to the corundum mineral family, which also includes ruby. While blue is the most widely recognized sapphire color, the mineral occurs in an impressive variety of shades, including green, yellow, pink, purple, orange, and combinations of these colors. Sapphires displaying mixed hues are often valued for their individuality and distinctive color balance.
The bluish green coloration of sapphire is generally associated with trace elements such as iron and titanium within the crystal structure. Variations in these elements and their interactions can produce a broad spectrum of blue-green appearances, ranging from lighter aquatic shades to deeper, more subdued tones.
This gemstone is unheated, retaining its naturally occurring coloration without heat enhancement. Since heat treatment is commonly used to modify the color and clarity of sapphires, an unheated example offers particular interest to collectors who appreciate gemstones in their original state.
Tanzania is an important source of colored sapphires, producing gemstones in a diverse range of hues. Tanzanian sapphires have gained recognition for their unusual colors and appealing natural character, making them an interesting addition to the international colored gemstone market.
At 1.44 carats with dimensions of 6.5 x 6 mm, this sapphire offers a versatile size for custom jewelry. Its classic oval cut makes it an attractive choice for a distinctive ring or elegant pendant, where its bluish green coloration can be prominently displayed.
With a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, sapphire offers excellent resistance to scratching and is well suited for jewelry when properly protected from sharp impacts. Its moderately included clarity reflects natural internal characteristics that contribute to the individuality of this gemstone.
A beautiful earth-mined bluish green sapphire offering distinctive natural color, classic oval styling, and the collectible appeal of an unheated Tanzanian gemstone.
