This 1.31 carat Nigerian aquamarine presents in a precise trillion shape, dimensions 7.32 x 7.29 x 5.07 mm, with an expertly executed trillion cut that emphasizes both brilliance and face up size. The faceting geometry displays clean facet junctions, a well proportioned crown, and a carefully calculated pavilion that together optimize internal reflection and light return, attributes enhanced by an excellent polish. Clarity has been graded as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, the inclusions are minimal and well isolated, permitting exceptional transparency and optical performance. The light color intensity reads as a soft pastel blue, evenly distributed across the stone, a characteristic hue for Nigerian aquamarine, unmodified by heat or other treatments, no enhancement, which preserves the gem in its wholly natural state.
From a setting and design perspective, the combination of 1.31 carat weight and the broad trillion table produces a commanding face up appearance, making this gem ideal for a statement ring or a central pendant. The depth to average dimension ratio calculates to approximately 69.4 percent, a proportion that contributes to depth of color and scintillation without sacrificing surface spread, and the near equilateral length to width relationship guarantees a balanced triangular silhouette on the finger or in a bezel. Craftsmanship notes include precise symmetry across the three lobes and uniformly faceted girdle contours, factors that facilitate secure, low profile mounting and predictable light performance under various lighting conditions. For connoisseurs seeking provenance, this aquamarine is identified to Nigerian origin, and its untreated nature appeals to collectors and designers who prioritize natural state gems. Available through The Natural Gemstone Company, this stone arrives selection ready for bespoke setting, and its combination of size, clarity, cut quality, and natural color intensity positions it as a compelling choice for a bold, refined statement piece.
