Accent Stones Blue Sapphire Ring 1.01 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers a transparent 1.01 carat radiant shape blue sapphire, with exact dimensions 6.53 x 5.00 x 3.92 mm, cut in a radiant faceting scheme that blends step facets with brilliant facets to maximize scintillation while preserving the stone geometry. The sapphire shows a medium intense color saturation, and a clarity described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, indicating inclusions that do not detract from face up transparency. The stone has been heat treated to optimize color uniformity, and it displays an excellent polish on both crown and pavilion facets. The mounting is a precise milled bezel that follows the octagonal outline of the radiant shape, offering mechanical protection and clean profile lines. Flanking the center, straight baguette lab grown diamonds weighing approximately 0.40 carats total are set in a tight channel, their linear step facets providing contrast to the center stone brilliance. These baguettes are graded color E and clarity Very Slightly Included with VS1 and VS2 components, chosen to read icy white against the warm gold and to maintain consistent alignment along the shoulder. The entire assembly is executed in 14K yellow gold, selected to warm the sapphire tone and to provide durable everyday wear characteristics.

The design vocabulary of this ring is intentionally architectural, each technical decision speaking to symbolic meaning. The radiant cut conveys resilience and layered complexity, its hybrid faceting reflecting the many facets of a long term partnership. The bezel setting signifies protection and continuity, a metal embrace that secures the gem while presenting a refined geometric silhouette. The row of straight baguettes functions as measured progressions along the band, suggesting steps of shared growth and milestones to come. Sourced from Montana, the sapphire brings a provenance of cool, natural blue character that pairs with the engineered purity of lab grown baguettes, together balancing tradition and modernity. At The Natural Sapphire Company, our craftsmen focus on exacting symmetry, consistent gem orientation, and hand finished polish to ensure this ring communicates both technical excellence and enduring symbolism.
