Pave Blue Sapphire Ring 1.44 Ct., 18K White Gold

This blue sapphire began its story deep in the weathered hills of Ceylon Sri Lanka, where miners and local families have known these stones for generations, and where the earth yields crystals with a depth of color that feels almost oceanic. Hand selected for its vivid blue, this sapphire is C.Dunaigre certified, weighing 1.44 carats, cut to a round shape with a mixed brilliant cut, and precisely measured at 6.51 x 6.42 x 4.52 mm. Its clarity grade reads very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, its color saturation is vivid, and its polish is excellent. This gem reached the hands of our lapidaries without enhancement, preserving the natural character that makes Ceylon sapphires so sought after, and at The Natural Sapphire Company we celebrate that natural provenance by tracing each step from mine to gem, honoring both the craft of the cutter and the cultural story that accompanies every stone.

From that origin the sapphire was carried into the studio, where design sketched itself from the curves and textures of nature, inspired by climbing vines and the graceful sweep of architectural arches. The band is sculpted in 18K white gold into an interlaced motif that cradles the vivid blue center, a living braid that suggests growth and shelter. Along the shoulders, white round shaped natural diamonds are set to catch light with every movement, small stones of approximately 0.04 carats each, clarity Very Slightly Included VS1 and VS2, and color grade F, paired with slightly larger whites of approximately 0.11 carats, clarity VS, and color grade F G, chosen to harmonize with the sapphire and the white gold. The prong setting elevates the gem, allowing its brilliant mixed cut to breathe, while the entwined shoulders echo both vine and arch, lending the ring an architectural balance and an organic warmth.

This piece is more than an object, it is a conversation between earth and maker, history and present, designed to be worn and treasured. At The Natural Sapphire Company we ensure every detail reflects authenticity and care, from the untouched Royal Blue hue to the responsibly set diamonds and the solid 18K white gold mounting. If you seek a ring that carries a story of place, craftsmanship, and enduring beauty, this sapphire engagement ring brings Ceylon into a modern, wearable form, ready to become the next chapter in your own story.
