Antique Style Blue Sapphire Ring 2.19 Ct., Platinum 950

This ring centers a transparent princess shape blue sapphire, weighing 2.19 carats, with dimensions 7.04 by 7.04 by 4.51 mm, presented in a step cut that emphasizes clean geometric planes and color depth. The sapphire displays vivid color saturation and an excellent polish, and it has been evaluated as eye clean at normal viewing distance, which indicates no visible inclusions to the unaided eye. The stone has undergone a standard heat treatment to enhance color uniformity, and its documented origin is Thailand. The mounting is crafted in 14K white gold, and the design features a square halo of white round diamonds around the center, together with additional round diamonds set on the shoulders, all selected to complement the sapphire without competing with its color and table presence.

Clarity comparison is a useful way to position this sapphire relative to other high end rings on the market, and it requires understanding that sapphire grading uses different conventions than diamond grading. Many high quality sapphires offered in the upper market segment show silk, rutile needles, or fingerprint type inclusions that are visible only under magnification or at certain orientations, and these characteristics can be part of a stone that otherwise shows excellent color. An eye clean sapphire of this size and vivid saturation is relatively uncommon, and it places this ring toward the upper tier of sapphire clarity among comparable stones. By contrast, high end diamond rings are often described with clarity grades such as VVS or IF, where the expectation of internal purity is comparatively stricter because diamond brilliance responds differently to inclusions, and because the gem trade routinely grades diamonds at higher clarity thresholds for premium pieces. For clients who prioritize visual purity in colored stones, this sapphire’s eye clean evaluation offers a level of apparent clarity that rivals many premium colored stones on the market, while maintaining the intense blue saturation that defines its appeal.

The accent diamonds in the ring are selected for consistent sparkle and color balance, with rounds weighing approximately 0.03 carats and additional rounds totaling approximately 0.23 carats, each graded VS for clarity and F or G for color. These diamonds are proportioned to form a luminous halo and to enhance the transition to the 14K white gold band, creating a cohesive visual field that frames the sapphire without overpowering it. VS clarity in these smaller accent diamonds ensures that light transmission is strong and that no distracting inclusions are evident in face up views, and the F and G color grading keeps the overall appearance bright and white against the cool blue of the sapphire and the reflective surface of the white gold. The craftsmanship of the setting, as seen in the refined gallery and the secure prong work that holds the princess cut, is intended to balance durability with refined aesthetic detailing, allowing the sapphire’s step cut planes to read clearly from multiple angles while the halo and shoulder diamonds contribute secondary sparkle.
