Accent Stones Blue Sapphire Ring 2.57 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

From the depths of Ceylon in Sri Lanka this pear shaped blue sapphire began its long journey as crystalline, slowly formed under pressure and time, drawing into its structure the sea touched blues that make Ceylon sapphires so sought after. At 2.57 carats and measuring 11.41 by 6.93 by 4.57 millimeters this stone is remarkable for its transparent presence and its medium intense color saturation, a hue that reads as both serene and alive. Cut as a mixed brilliant pear, the gem balances the soft, lyrical silhouette of the teardrop with a faceting scheme designed to return light with lively fire. Its clarity was evaluated as very very slightly included when viewed at eye level, and with no enhancement applied this sapphire remains in its natural state, a narrative of earth and time that is rare to find. The Natural Sapphire Company sources and respects these origins, choosing only pieces whose story can be traced back to their place of birth, so the wearer carries not just a jewel but a fragment of a landscape and a lineage.

The transformation from rough to ring is a conversation between the cutter and the gem, a careful negotiation of angles and planes to maximize beauty and preserve weight, performed by skilled artisans who honor the stone rather than alter it. Once perfected the sapphire was set in a 14K yellow gold ring that cradles its pear profile with a refined gallery and prong work, allowing light to pass beneath and around the stone, amplifying its natural glow. Flanking the center are natural white round diamonds weighing approximately 0.42 carats in total, selected for their bright F color and clean appearance with clarity grades of VS1 and VS2. These diamonds are arranged to echo the taper of the pear, each one a small sunburst that supports the main gem, adding contrast and a quiet brilliance that frames the blue like sky on the horizon. The excellent polish on the sapphire and the considered finishing on the gold band ensure that every movement catches light, creating a living jewel that shifts and brightens with the wearer.

Beyond materials and measures this ring is designed to speak in symbols, to carry meaning as surely as it carries beauty. The pear shape is an emblem of two ideas at once, graceful and directional, inward and outward, evoking a tear of joy and a flame that points toward what is cherished. It is a shape that suggests devotion that is both tender and purposeful, fitting for commitments, commemorations, or a personal milestone. The three stone composition implied by the flanking diamonds suggests a journey of past, present, and future, companions along a path illuminated by the sapphire at the center. The warmth of the 14K yellow gold setting harmonizes with the cool blue of the sapphire producing a balance of heart and clarity, intimacy and truth. Because the sapphire is untreated and of Ceylon origin its authenticity becomes part of the ring’s symbolism, a reminder that love and beauty are most profound when they are allowed to remain true to their nature.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we believe a jewel should begin a relationship the moment it is found, and continue to tell its story across years and occasions. This ring is crafted to become an heirloom, wearable every day, yet distinctive enough to mark a special life chapter. If you are drawn to its story imagine the sapphire resting against your skin, the yellow gold warming with you, and the side diamonds catching daylight as you move, each element a memory in the making. We are happy to share more information about the stone, the setting, and customization options, and to arrange viewings so the gem may speak to you in person. Owning this ring is not only owning a beautiful object, it is accepting a piece of earth shaped by hands and time, a tangible connection from the mines of Ceylon to your life.
