Antique Style Blue Sapphire Ring 5.28 Ct., 18K White Gold

This ring centers on a rare, GRS certified Blue 5.28 carat cushion shape sapphire from Ceylon, with dimensions 10.49 x 10.10 x 5.27 mm, a mixed brilliant cut, very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level, intense color saturation, and an excellent polish, no enhancement. Compared with many market alternatives that are smaller, heat treated, or carry ambiguous origin claims, this natural Ceylon sapphire offers a depth of color and a purity of tone that is difficult to find at this size without treatment. The mixed brilliant facets add liveliness and scintillation that outperforms standard step cut cushions, so you get both the old world richness of Ceylon blue and the contemporary fire buyers expect, backed by GRS certification for confidence and provenance.

Flanking the center stone are white baguette shaped natural diamonds, arranged to complement the sapphire rather than compete with it, approximately 0.80 carats for the principal baguettes, plus additional baguettes weighing approximately 0.16 carats and approximately 0.10 carats, clarity Very Slightly Included VS1, VS2, and color grade F. The straight baguettes provide a crisp, architectural counterpoint to the cushion center, producing clean lines and a refined profile that many round accent designs cannot achieve. Set entirely in platinum 950, the diamonds and sapphire are secured in a metal that is more durable and denser than typical 14 karat or 18 karat alternatives, and the cool white metal emphasizes the pure blue and near colorless F grade of the diamonds for superior contrast and perceived value.

Beyond gemstone pedigree and technical specifications, practical wear is paramount, and this ring is designed for all day comfort. The platinum band is expertly formed with a smooth inner shank and a balanced weight distribution so the ring sits evenly on the finger, reducing rotation and pressure points that make other ornate settings uncomfortable for daily wear. The prong and gallery work is refined to minimize snagging while maintaining security, so the piece performs as well in daily life as it does on special occasions. For customers seeking natural, unheated stone quality, certified origin, and a design that combines striking presence with everyday comfort, The Natural Sapphire Company offers a ring that stands apart from common market offerings in both substance and wearability.
