Accent Stones Blue Sapphire Ring 1.63 Ct., 14K White Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 1.63 carat heart shaped blue sapphire, measuring 6.37 x 7.33 x 5.06 mm and cut in a mixed brilliant style, which balances table size and crown facets to optimize brilliance for this heart silhouette. The sapphire is graded Very Slightly Included as evaluated at eye level, with medium light color saturation and an excellent polish, and has been heat treated to enhance tone and clarity in a stable and widely accepted manner. The stone is from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a region renowned for lively, slightly lighter blue sapphires that display a pleasing silk and scintillation, qualities that make this gem especially desirable for buyers who appreciate origin and trade history. Complementing the center are white round natural diamonds weighing approximately 0.06 carats total, graded Very Slightly Included in clarity, VS1 and VS2, with an F color grade that sits in the near colorless range, adding crisp white sparkle against the platinum setting. This combination of a well proportioned, eye clean Ceylon sapphire, high quality near colorless diamonds, and meticulous polish is presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, and is aimed at the educated buyer who values documented origin, proportionate cutting, and stable enhancement practices.

In terms of durability, this design is engineered for long term wear while prioritizing light performance. Sapphire registers nine on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond, which gives the center stone strong resistance to abrasion and makes it suitable for daily wear when set thoughtfully. The heart shape does present two areas of mechanical vulnerability, the lobes and the cleft, and the pointed tip can be susceptible in low tier settings, however this ring uses a secure prong elevation combined with platinum 950 mountings, and platinum 950 provides significantly greater density and metal hardness compared with many yellow gold or white gold alloys, resulting in less metal loss over time and more secure prongs. Compared with bezel set alternatives that offer maximum protection at the expense of light return, the prong set mixed brilliant cut here maximizes sparkle while maintaining robust protection through strong prong construction and low profile side diamonds that reduce snagging. For buyers comparing similar designs on the market, the use of platinum 950, a well proportioned Ceylon sapphire with eye level clarity, and carefully matched VS F diamonds make this ring more resilient against routine wear and retipping than softer gold settings, while preserving optimal brilliance and the aesthetic appeal expected by discerning collectors.
