This vivid unheated Australian green sapphire immediately catches the eye with its striking yellow-green to olive-chartreuse color, a bold and saturated hue that brings to mind lush summer foliage with a gemstone brilliance behind it. The oval cut shows excellent light play, with the lively green tones dancing across the facets as the stone moves. The natural color variation visible in the stone, shifting between brighter yellow-green and deeper olive tones, adds to its genuinely individual character. A truly distinctive sapphire in a color rarely seen.
Australia's sapphire fields are known for producing colored corundum with a distinctly bold and parti character unlike sapphires from any other origin. This stone is fully unheated and untreated, meaning its vibrant green color is entirely natural and unenhanced. At 4.7x4.2mm and 0.55ct it is an ideal size for a statement ring accent, earring pair, or pendant for jewelry designers who seek something genuinely different. Unheated status adds collector value for buyers who prioritize natural origin.

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 untreated. 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.
