This delicate unheated yellow sapphire from Madagascar presents a soft, warm pale yellow with a gentle canary tone and excellent VVS clarity that lets the light pass cleanly through the well-cut oval. The stone is bright and lively, with a clean, transparent face that shows virtually no inclusions to the eye. Its restrained color and high clarity show the material in a clean, natural state.
Madagascar produces unheated yellow sapphire across a natural golden palette that needs no enhancement. This stone is fully untreated, preserving its natural color and internal character exactly as formed. At 6x4mm and 0.70ct it is an ideal size for solitaire earrings, a delicate pendant, or a side-stone accent in fine jewelry. Unheated natural sapphires are sought by 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.
