Antique Style Blue Sapphire Ring 2.55 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

From the ancient riverbeds of Ceylon to the bench of a master jeweler, this ring tells a story of time, earth, and careful human hands. The journey begins where geological forces folded and cooled, creating pockets rich with corundum that over generations became the blue sapphire at the heart of this design. This gem weighs 2.55 carats, and its pear shape is carved to dimensions of 12.24 by 5.67 by 4.75 mm, its mixed brilliant cut chosen to balance scintillation and depth. At eye level the stone is eye clean, its internal landscape free from visible inclusions, while a medium light color saturation gives the blue a fresh, airy presence that nods to the famous Ceylon palette, and an excellent polish allows each facet to catch the light with effortless clarity. Skilled cutters in Sri Lanka and beyond respected the sapphire's natural beauty, trimming and faceting to preserve its hue and transparency, and in doing so they retained the gem's character, its origin, and its story.

Set beside this Ceylon sapphire are white round shaped lab grown diamonds totaling approximately 1.70 carats, each carefully selected for a balance of brilliance and purity, clarity graded Very Slightly Included, VS1 and VS2, and color graded E for a crisp, icy contrast. These diamonds flank the pear shaped center, amplifying its light and framing its silhouette, while the entire composition is held in warm 14K yellow gold, the metal chosen to accent the stone's gentle blue and to honor traditional craftsmanship. Intricate gallery work and hand engraved details on the band speak to a level of finish that transforms the ring from a singular gem into a wearable heirloom. At The Natural Sapphire Company we curate not only stones, but provenance and purpose, pairing a Ceylon sapphire with responsibly produced lab grown diamonds and time proven goldsmithing to create a piece that adds emotional and material value. This ring becomes more than jewelry, it becomes memory and legacy, a conversation between the land that birthed the sapphire and the hands that set it, a tangible connection to place and craft that will deepen with every passing year.
