Three Stone Blue Sapphire Ring 0.99 Ct., 18K White Gold

There is a particular kind of beauty that seems to carry the weight of centuries, a beauty that belongs equally to kings and to those who appreciate quiet, enduring elegance. This ring begins with a transparent 0.99 carat asscher octagon shape blue sapphire, a stone whose geometry and depth recall the classical faceting traditions that have been admired for generations. The sapphire measures 5.40 x 5.36 x 3.80 mm, an ideal proportion that allows the asscher cut to reveal its step facets with clarity and precision. Sourced from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this gem carries the storied history of Ceylonese sapphires, known since antiquity for their vivid color and luminous clarity. The stone is eye clean when evaluated at eye level, with vivid color saturation and an excellent polish, qualities that speak to both the natural character of the sapphire and the careful selection by our gem specialists at The Natural Sapphire Company. The sapphire has been heat treated, a traditional and widely accepted enhancement that deepens tone while preserving the stone s inherent beauty, and it presents the sort of regal blue that has been prized in royal jewels and classical settings across the ages.

The setting is conceived to focus attention unwaveringly on that central sapphire, a design sensibility rooted in the timeless language of classic jewelry. The stone is held with elegant prongs that lift it slightly above the band, creating a small, luminous gallery space that allows light to enter from beneath and plays through the step facets of the asscher cut. Flanking the center stone are white baguette tapered shaped natural diamonds, together weighing approximately 0.07 carats, with clarity Very Slightly Included, VS1, VS2, and a color grade of F. The tapered baguettes sit like quiet heralds at the shoulders of the sapphire, their linear white sparkle accentuating the asscher s geometric profile and directing the eye inward, toward the heart of the ring. The entire composition is crafted in 18K white gold, a metal choice that provides cool contrast to the warm depth of Ceylon blue, while its polished finish echoes the vintage purity of classic solitaire and three stone designs. The result is a ring whose structural simplicity elevates the sapphire, where every facet and every bevel is orchestrated to center the gaze on the gem, and where the diamonds perform a supportive, architectural role rather than compete for attention.

To wear this ring is to carry a small piece of history forward, to participate in a lineage of refined taste and considered workmanship. The asscher cut itself speaks to early twentieth century cutting traditions, and when paired with a Ceylon sapphire of such vivid saturation it conveys both heritage and a timeless modernity. At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor that legacy through meticulous selection and hands on craftsmanship, ensuring that each element from the stone proportions to the prong geometry and the tapered baguette alignment contributes to the overall harmony of the piece. This ring is conceived as an heirloom, designed to be worn daily or reserved for moments that call for a quiet declaration of devotion, and capable of passing from one generation to the next without losing its voice. For those who value lineage, authenticity, and an aesthetic that endures beyond fashion, this asscher cut Ceylon sapphire ring offers a rare combination of historical resonance and contemporary wearability. If you seek a center stone that commands attention through proportion, color, and cut, and a setting that elevates rather than overshadows, this ring embodies that ideal, and The Natural Sapphire Company stands ready to guide you through the care, sizing, and bespoke options that will make it distinctly yours.
