Pave Bi Color Sapphire Ring 2.44 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring is a study in heritage and refinement, marrying the storied legacy of Ceylon sapphires with a design that speaks to generations. The centerpiece is a transparent, 2.44 carat oval bi color sapphire, measuring 9.00 by 6.39 by 5.14 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style that balances classical form with modern sparkle. Hailing from Sri Lanka, a source of the world’s most treasured sapphires for centuries, this gem carries the quiet nobility of an island tradition where miners and lapidaries have passed techniques down through families for generations. Its very light color saturation and subtle bi color shift, a delicate dance between cool blue and soft violet, evokes the same refined restraint admired in antique pieces worn by royalty and collectors alike. With no enhancements and an excellent polish, the stone presents an honest, untouched presence that honors the natural beauty for which Ceylon sapphires have long been celebrated.

The ring’s silhouette is timeless, a classic solitaire elevated by a pavé of white round diamonds along the shoulders, executed with careful attention to proportion and balance. The total diamond weight accentuating the band is approximately 0.558 carats, comprised of smaller melee diamonds around 0.09 carats and a further array totaling approximately 0.468 carats, all graded VS for clarity and F to G for color. These diamonds are chosen and matched to impart a bright, near-colorless field of light that enhances the sapphire’s own play without overwhelming it. Expertly cut and set, the mixed brilliant facets of the center gem interact with the pavé diamonds to create a layered sparkle, each facet responding to light with lively motion. The result is a ring that reads as both intimate and ceremonious, suitable for an heirloom engagement ring or as a singular statement of enduring taste.

Every detail reflects the disciplined craftsmanship of The Natural Sapphire Company, where gemological knowledge and bench skills converge to realize a design that feels both historic and freshly made. The sapphire is secured in a refined four-prong setting, allowing maximum visibility and light entry so the gem’s internal character may be appreciated from every angle. The pavé diamonds are meticulously set into the 14 karat yellow gold band, their alignment and spacing attended to by hand to ensure symmetry and secure seating. The warm tone of the yellow gold was selected to complement the sapphire’s subtle bicolor personality, recalling the gilded settings of classical jewelry while keeping the overall effect luminous and contemporary. Finishing touches, from the exacting polish to the clean lines beneath the gallery, illustrate how skilled artisans enhance the stone’s natural virtues rather than mask them.

Owning this ring is to connect with a lineage of gemstone appreciation that prizes provenance, natural beauty, and sustained workmanship. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind the sapphire’s origin and integrity, offering a piece that looks as though it could have been worn through generations while remaining perfectly suited to today’s sensibilities. For someone who values tradition, subtlety, and the quiet power of honest materials, this oval bi color Ceylon sapphire set in 14 karat yellow gold offers a rare combination of history, handcraft, and enduring elegance.
