Accent Stones Blue Sapphire Ring 1.94 Ct., 18K White Gold

This ring centers around a transparent, oval shape blue sapphire weighing 1.94 carats, with exact dimensions of 7.99 by 5.71 by 4.60 millimetres, and a mixed brilliant cut designed to balance depth of colour with lively light performance. The mixed brilliant cut combines the optical advantages of a faceting pattern that increases scintillation with proportions that preserve weight and face up size, producing a vivid table presence while maintaining excellent light return, and the excellent polish further enhances surface lustre and crisp facet definition. The stone has been evaluated at eye level and reported as very slightly included, indicating an eye clean appearance to the unaided eye in typical viewing conditions, and the medium intense colour saturation communicates a lively blue that is neither overly dark nor pastel, a balance prized in Ceylon sapphires where tone and saturation work together to create a vivid, attractive hue. Importantly this sapphire has no enhancement, which confirms that the colour and clarity are natural attributes of the material, a quality that appeals to collectors and connoisseurs who prioritise natural state gems and provenance.

Flanking the central sapphire are well matched white round diamonds, arranged in graduated shoulders to complement and enhance the centre stone without overpowering it. The larger group of side diamonds totals approximately 0.24 carats, and the smaller grouping totals approximately 0.16 carats, creating a combined diamond weight of about 0.40 carats, and each diamond has been assessed at Very Slightly Included in the VS1 and VS2 range, with a colour grade of F. This means that the diamonds sit in the near colourless band, producing bright white sparkle with minimal hint of body colour, and their clarity grading implies inclusions that are microscopic and not visible to the naked eye, ensuring clean, lively scintillation under normal lighting. The round shape of these diamonds is the most efficient in converting incoming light into fire and brilliance, and in this setting the diamonds are matched for tone and proportion so that they form a coherent, luminous frame for the sapphire, adding contrast and visual balance while preserving the overall refinement of the piece.

The metal choice of platinum 950 provides an ideal setting platform for both visual and practical reasons, platinum being dense, durable, and naturally white so it will not require frequent re plating to maintain a neutral reflective field around the stones. The setting design is informed by both natural forms and restrained architectural gestures, the band flowing in a gently undulating line that evokes a vine or stream and cradling the central oval in a three quarter prong crown that lifts the sapphire to maximise table light entry. At the same time the shoulders are configured with a subtle cantilevered effect that references architectural balance and engineered proportion, creating a modern silhouette that reads as both organic and structural. The prong and gallery construction has been executed to secure the sapphire and diamonds with minimal visual obstruction, allowing light to pass through the pavilion and side facets, and the band tapers and rounds comfortably under the finger to combine secure wearability with elegant presence.

For the educated buyer, several factors make this ring noteworthy as an acquisition both for personal wear and as a considered gem purchase. The origin of the sapphire is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source historically associated with lively, medium to vivid blue sapphires that display both attractive colour and fine crystalline clarity, and an unenhanced Ceylon sapphire of this weight and transparency represents a comparatively rare find in the current market. The combination of a natural, untreated colour, a well executed mixed brilliant cut, eye level very slightly included clarity, and excellent polish creates a stone with aesthetic and market desirability, and the complementary near colourless VS diamonds and secure platinum 950 mounting complete a composition built to endure. The hardness and toughness of corundum make this sapphire suitable for daily wear, and platinum adds structural longevity, meaning the piece is appropriate for regular use as an engagement or signature ring with low maintenance.
