Accent Stones Bi Color Sapphire Ring 1.24 Ct., Platinum 950

This ring centers a one point two four carat, emerald cut, bi color sapphire, measuring six point nine eight by five point zero eight by three point four eight millimeters, sourced from Ceylon, Sri Lanka. The sapphire displays vivid color saturation and an excellent polish, with a clarity grading of very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and no enhancement. The step facets of the emerald cut emphasize the stone s bi color character, presenting a controlled flash and clear color zoning. Flanking the center are natural white round diamonds, one group weighing approximately zero point zero four carats, and another weighing approximately zero point zero two carats, both graded Very Slightly Included in clarities VS1 and VS2, and color grade F. The stones are all set in a four prong gallery with additional accent mounts in a band crafted in fourteen karat white gold, completed with refined gallery work that complements the central emerald cut profile. The Natural Sapphire Company presents this piece with attention to provenance and lapidary quality, reflecting the untreated origin and detailed finishing of each component.

From a durability perspective the sapphire s natural hardness of nine on the Mohs scale gives it strong resistance to abrasion, making it highly suitable for daily wear when compared to other gem materials. While diamond remains the hardest natural gem at ten, the sapphire s combination of hardness and good toughness means it is far less prone to surface wear in normal use, and it resists scratches from everyday materials. The emerald cut does present more pronounced step facet edges and corners than some rounded cuts, so secure prong settings and protective galleries are important to reduce the risk of mechanical impact, and this ring s setting is designed to shelter the stone s girdle and corners. The small diamond accents, with classic round cuts and VS clarity, provide durable accent brilliance, and their placement set low into the metal further reduces exposure to knocks. Fourteen karat white gold provides a robust mounting that balances everyday resilience with long term wearability, noting that white gold may require periodic rhodium replating to maintain its bright white appearance. For routine care, gentle cleaning with warm soapy water, a soft brush, and periodic professional inspections of prongs and settings will preserve both structural security and optical performance, and professional ultrasonic or steam cleaning is generally acceptable for untreated, well included sapphires, when confirmed by a qualified jeweler.
