Solitaire Blue Sapphire Ring 2.09 Ct., 14K White Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 2.09 carat heart shaped blue sapphire, precisely measured at 7.13 by 7.70 by 4.66 millimeters, with a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation and depth of color. The mixed brilliant cut employs a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown, delivering lively sparkle face up, while the modified pavilion preserves depth and saturation, producing a vivid blue that is highly desirable to connoisseurs. The stone is eye clean when evaluated at eye level, indicating that inclusions do not distract with unaided vision, and the polish is rated excellent so that light return and surface reflections are crisp and well defined. This sapphire originates from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a region historically prized for producing lively cornflower to vivid blue sapphires, and it has been professionally heat treated, a standard and permanent enhancement that improves color and clarity without compromising structural stability. For an educated buyer, these combined factors speak to a gem with excellent provenance, strong face up presence relative to its carat weight, and enduring market appeal.

The setting and overall design convey an architectural inspiration, with clean lines and an elevated gallery that recall classic cathedral proportions, allowing the heart shape to sit slightly above the band and capture light from multiple angles. The sapphire is securely held in a refined prong setting, set entirely in 14K white gold, which provides a durable yet elegant frame that enhances the blue color through cool metal contrast. The minimalist band emphasizes the stone as the focal point while the lift and open gallery create a sense of modern architectural poise. For care and longevity, The Natural Sapphire Company recommends routine inspections to ensure the prongs remain secure, and gentle cleaning in warm soapy water to maintain brilliance. For buyers seeking both emotional resonance and technical quality, this ring combines a desirable Ceylon origin sapphire, transparent eye clean clarity, vigorous color saturation, and a considered architectural design in 14K white gold, making it an excellent choice for an engagement or a signature piece that balances aesthetic refinement with gemstone integrity.
