Three Stone Blue Sapphire Ring 3.17 Ct., 14K White & Yellow

This ring is a study in refined rarity, a composition conceived for the connoisseur who seeks a single, exceptional treasure, and it is presented by The Natural Sapphire Company. At its heart is a transparent C.Dunaigre certified Blue sapphire weighing 3.17 carats, cut in a cushion shape with a mixed brilliant facet arrangement, and finished with an excellent polish that lets light dance from every angle. The sapphire measures 8.64 by 7.06 by 5.37 millimeters and displays vivid color saturation and an eye clean clarity when evaluated at eye level. This gem is heat treated to enhance its natural hue, and it is of origin Ceylon Sri Lanka, a provenance long celebrated for producing the most sought after cornflower and royal blues in the world. To each side of the center stone sit white half moon shaped natural diamonds weighing approximately 0.40 carats in total, with clarity grades Very Slightly Included, VS1 and VS2, and a color grade of F, chosen to flank and elevate the sapphire without competing for attention. The ring is crafted in a bespoke marriage of 18K white gold and 18K yellow gold, with the gallery and settings plated in white gold to heighten the sapphire and diamonds, and the band cast in warm 18K yellow gold to offer a subtle architectural contrast.

The design is inspired by a dialogue between organic form and classical architecture, imagined as the graceful intersection of a water lily petal and the refined profile of a temple cornice. The cushion shaped sapphire sits like a cultivated bloom, its rounded corners and brilliant facets recalling the soft geometry of a petal folding toward light, while the crisp lines of the white gold claws and the stepped diamond half moons echo the disciplined rhythm of an architectural frieze. From the side view the gallery is open and airy, allowing the sapphire to breathe and to be observed for its internal glow, but the silhouette retains the solidity of a well proportioned column, balanced and durable. This juxtaposition was conceived to honor the sapphire in a setting that both protects and celebrates, to give the wearer the feeling of possessing a rare object that could have been discovered in a private collection, restored and set anew for modern life.

Owning this ring is to join a limited circle of collectors and patrons, because gems of this caliber and provenance do not present themselves often. Each detail is selected and finished by hand, from the way the prongs are burnished around the sapphire to the exact curvature of the band, ensuring that every piece leaving The Natural Sapphire Company is ready to be passed down as an heirloom. We offer bespoke services for those who wish to tailor the ring to a personal specification, including alternate metal balances, engraving, and sizing, though we advise that any changes be considered with care to preserve the integrity and value of the central sapphire and its diamond companions. For discerning clients who value provenance, the C.Dunaigre certification accompanies the gem, and our gemologists remain available to discuss the sapphire origin, the nature of the heat treatment, and the eye clean clarity assessment in detail. This ring is a rare opportunity to possess a jewel that combines the living color and history of a Ceylon sapphire with the refined restraint of architectural elegance, crafted for a select owner who understands that true rarity cannot be replicated.
