This vivid Australian green sapphire displays a beautifully saturated teal-green color in a compact cushion cut, with the bright body showing characteristic Australian parti zoning as vivid yellow-green tones flash from the facet edges while a cooler blue-green dominates the center. The VS clarity means the stone is largely free of visible inclusions and well-transparent, allowing the dynamic color to shine without obstruction. The cushion shape at 5.2x4.8mm is a compact, elegant form that concentrates the vibrant green color into a classic setting-ready profile.
Australian cushion-cut sapphires with this kind of teal-green parti coloring are highly collectible, combining the distinctive color character of the continent's gem fields with the practical versatility of a cushion shape. This stone has been heat treated to optimize and stabilize its vivid color, a standard and permanent process widely accepted in the trade. At 0.67ct and 5.2x4.8mm it is an excellent choice for a solitaire ring, pendant design, or earring pair where a clean, vividly colored Australian sapphire with a classic cut is the goal.

About sapphire
Sapphire is corundum in every color except red. At 9 on the Mohs scale it is second only to diamond, and it is also very tough with no cleavage, so it rarely chips or splits when knocked. Together that makes it one of the most durable gemstones for everyday wear, rings included.
Cleaning
Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft toothbrush are all you need. Brush behind the stone too, where dust and skin oils collect, then rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Ultrasonic and steam cleaners are usually fine for a faceted sapphire, but skip them if the stone has fissures that reach the surface.
Wear and storage
Sapphire is very hard, so it can scratch softer gemstones stored with it. Only diamond can scratch it, so keep it apart from diamonds and store it on its own in a gem jar or a soft pouch.
For your jeweler
This sapphire is heated, and the color from heating is stable. Sapphire handles normal setting, re-tipping and polishing well. If the stone has fissures that reach the surface, keep it out of direct torch flame and acid pickle.
