➡️ Technical specifications

Ocean Shift is one of those sapphires whose effect is strongly created by the color change within a narrow spectrum. The stone shows a clear mixture of blue and green, without fully tilting in either direction.

The color distribution is not homogeneous but slightly zoned. This creates areas with a stronger blue component and others with a green hue. This interplay is typical for teal sapphires and ensures a vibrant but controlled color effect.

At 1.17 carats, the stone is already above the classic 1-ct threshold, which gives it a noticeable presence. The octagonal step cut supports the color's structure, as it does not scatter light strongly but reflects it precisely. This ensures that the color separation remains clearly perceptible.

The transparency is good, and the internal appearance is calm. This makes the stone appear clean and defined, without visual disturbance. The combination of step cut and color zoning results in a rather "architectural" effect instead of sparkling brilliance.

Ocean Shift represents a modern color aesthetic within the sapphire world – not classically blue, but deliberately positioned between the spectra.
