Bezel Bi Color Sapphire Ring 0.79 Ct., 18K White Gold

This ring centers on a transparent bi color sapphire weighing 0.79 carat, cut in an emerald cut with dimensions of 6.81 by 3.96 by 2.92 millimeters, a shape and proportion that emphasize color zoning and clarity while offering a refined rectangular silhouette. The sapphire is graded as slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a clarity designation that is consistent with natural Ceylon material and one that retains excellent visual appeal for a gemstone of this size and cut. Color is described as medium saturation, providing a lively yet natural tone that reads as a rich Ceylon blue with subtle bi color character that can shift slightly with lighting and viewing angle. The stone benefits from an excellent polish, which enhances the step facets of the emerald cut and gives crisp facet junctions and a clean table surface. The sapphire has been heat treated, a well established and widely accepted enhancement that stabilizes color and clarity in corundum, and this treatment is both permanent and commonplace for Sri Lankan sapphires. The gem originates from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a source known for producing stones with attractive cornflower blues and lively color physics, and this provenance contributes both to the gemological story and to the collectible appeal for educated buyers.

The mounting is crafted entirely in platinum nine hundred and fifty, a metal content reflecting ninety five percent platinum, chosen for its enduring strength and natural white hue that complements the sapphire without masking its bi color presence. Platinum nine hundred and fifty offers high density and excellent wear resistance, making it an ideal choice for an engagement or wedding ring that will be worn daily and inherited across generations. The design presents the sapphire in a secure, low profile bezel influenced setting, with a gallery opening that allows light to reach the pavilion while protecting the delicate corners of the emerald cut, a practical consideration that balances elegance with durability. The lines of the platinum band are gently tapered to frame the stone, creating a visual lift that makes the emerald cut appear elongated on the finger, and the polished finish on the metal creates subtle reflections that echo the stone s step facets. The choice of a platinum setting also reduces the need for frequent re-plating or maintenance that is common with lower purity white metals, and it conveys a level of refinement that modern brides and grooms often seek for a timeless engagement or wedding piece.

For an educated buyer considering this ring from The Natural Sapphire Company, the appeal is multifaceted, combining gemological integrity, artisanal setting, and bridal significance. The slightly included clarity grade is consistent with a natural, untreated appearance prior to heat treatment and represents a reasonable compromise between eye clean aesthetics and the character of a genuine Ceylon sapphire. The emerald cut magnifies the sapphire s color planes and offers a sophisticated alternative to brilliant cuts, favoring a refined, architectural light return that suits someone who values clean lines and classical restraint. Heat treatment is disclosed and standard, and it enhances both color stability and overall beauty without diminishing the stone s long term durability, details that matter to buyers who evaluate stones based on both scientific and conservation minded criteria. As an engagement or wedding ring the piece functions as a symbol of enduring commitment, with the platinum nine hundred and fifty setting providing a secure, high quality foundation for daily wear and the bi color sapphire offering individuality and provenance.
