Halo Blue Sapphire Ring 2.25 Ct., 14K White Gold

This ring from The Natural Sapphire Company presents a refined balance of color, clarity, and craftsmanship, designed to be an enduring symbol for a significant life event. The center stone is a transparent, 2.25 carat oval shape blue sapphire with dimensions 9.21 by 7.07 by 4.30 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to optimize both scintillation and color saturation. The sapphire is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and it displays a medium intense color saturation combined with an excellent polish. Importantly for the discerning buyer, this sapphire has no enhancement, a characteristic that markedly increases its rarity and collector appeal, especially in a stone of this size and clarity. The overall silhouette is classic yet current, a halo composition that frames the central oval with white round natural diamonds, and the entire setting is executed in durable 14K white gold for long term wear and timeless versatility.

Understanding why this sapphire is valuable requires attention to origin, treatment history, and optical performance. Sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, this sapphire comes from a region renowned for producing stones with a distinctive, lively tone that sits between deep royal blue and lighter cornflower hues. The medium intense saturation in this example allows the gem to read as vibrant without appearing overly dark, which helps reveal internal light return and sparkle from the mixed brilliant cut. Being unenhanced means the color and clarity are wholly natural, a feature that experienced buyers prize because it preserves both integrity and provenance. The very slightly included clarity grading at eye level indicates minimal internal features that do not detract from overall transparency, and in practical terms the stone reads clean to most observers while retaining the natural inclusions that confirm it as a genuine, untreated sapphire.

Complementing the sapphire, the ring features approximately 0.84 carats of white round natural diamonds of Very Slightly Included clarity in grades VS1 and VS2, and a near colorless grade of F, chosen to create maximum contrast and brightness around the center stone. The halo of well matched diamonds amplifies the perceived size of the sapphire and contributes to exceptional face up brilliance. The diamonds are precision selected to balance color and clarity against the vividness of the central gem, ensuring that the halo sparkles white and lively without introducing unwanted warmth. The 14K white gold mount provides a strong, secure platform for daily wear while maintaining a luminous, contemporary finish that complements both the blue of the sapphire and the icy tones of the diamonds. Fine details in the gallery and prong work ensure the sapphire is held with optimal light exposure, while the smooth polished band offers comfort and classic wearability.

For an educated buyer seeking a perfect gift for a milestone such as an engagement, anniversary, graduation, or a significant birthday, this ring offers both emotional resonance and demonstrable gemological value. The combination of a substantial 2.25 carat, untreated Ceylon sapphire, a well executed mixed brilliant cut, and a halo of quality VS1 and VS2 F diamonds yields a piece that is both visually impressive and underpinned by verifiable attributes that matter to collectors and connoisseurs. Its provenance and lack of enhancement provide a compelling narrative and lasting value, while the design adapts effortlessly to both formal and everyday settings. At The Natural Sapphire Company we stand behind each gem with transparent information about origin, cutting, clarity, and treatment, and we are available to discuss independent certification, bespoke adjustments, or sizing to ensure the ring marks the occasion with authenticity and enduring beauty.
