GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: Based on its characteristics, this vivid pastel yellow sapphire from Madagascar exhibits high-quality attributes and excellent craftsmanship. With a carat weight of 1.4, handcrafted fancy octagon checkerboard cut, and the absence of treatments, the fair market value of this gemstone is estimated to be in the range of USD 800 to USD 1,200. The clarity grade of SI and the moderately strong saturation enhance its desirability in the market, making it a valuable addition to a gem collection.

Considering the current market trends, this Madagascar sapphire presents a reasonable option for future appreciation, mainly due to its unique cut and attractive color. However, as a long-term investment, it may not provide substantial returns compared to larger or more rare gemstones. Instead, this particular sapphire could be better suited as an elegant piece of jewelry, such as a statement ring or pendant, allowing the owner to enjoy its beauty and craftsmanship while retaining its value as a fashionable accessory.
