Men's Bluish Green Sapphire Ring 7.47 Ct., 18K White & Yellow

This men's ring centers a transparent 7.47 carat cushion shape sapphire, precisely measured at 12.79 x 8.93 x 7.07 mm, cut to a mixed brilliant proportion that balances scintillation and color depth, the cutter employing a brilliant style on the crown with modified pavilion facets to return maximum light while preserving the stone body color. The hue registers as bluish green with intense saturation and an excellent polish that yields crisp facet junctions and lively facet contrast under direct light, the absence of enhancement confirming an untreated natural material from Montana that carries distinct regional character. The mixed brilliant strategy reduces the appearance of windowing by optimizing table size relative to depth, the modified pavilion facets generating a rich inner fire while the cushion outline with softened corners retains a classic silhouette suitable for a masculine profile. Clarity is described as very slightly included evaluated at eye level, an assessment that reflects a gem with minor internal features that do not overwhelm the visual presentation, the overall optical performance demonstrating that the cut and polish decisions were made to prioritize both brilliance and retention of color saturation, a hallmark of considered lapidary craftsmanship.

The internal inclusions of this Montana sapphire are integral to its individuality, appearing as fine silk fibers, isolated reflective crystals, and subtle clouding that together create a layered internal landscape that interacts with facet geometry to produce depth and motion. Rather than detracting from value, these features act as a fingerprint, each filament and crystal oriented in a pattern that identifies the stone as natural and unique, the silk threads scattering light to soften bright flashes and impart a velvety depth that enhances the bluish green tone especially in diffuse light. At certain orientations the reflective inclusions produce pinprick highlights that dance against the broader flashes from the mixed brilliant facets, creating a dynamic interplay between scintillation and color saturation, the net effect being a stone that appears alive with internal texture. The very slightly included clarity grade indicates that when examined at eye level there are minute inclusions perceptible to a practiced viewer, but these are sparse and strategically distributed so that when set they contribute character without compromising the overall transparency and brilliance, the lapidary decision to orient major inclusions along facet planes demonstrates an intentional approach to maximize light return while celebrating the gem natural history.

The setting and finish are executed with technical precision in both 18K white gold and 18K yellow gold, a bi metal approach that serves both aesthetic and structural objectives, the sapphire is held in a white gold bezel that cools the immediate crown area and visually sharpens the bluish component, while the yellow gold shank warms the overall presentation and provides a robust, masculine footprint for daily wear. The bezel is engineered with a secure internal seat and an open gallery beneath the pavilion allowing light to reenter the stone from below, the gallery windows also reduce weight while preserving stability, the shank displays a subtle taper and split shoulder detail that blends into the bezel with hand finished joins and a high polish that echoes the stone polish. Attention to tolerance and proportion ensures the bezel wall is thin enough to reveal the facets yet substantial enough to protect the cabochon like cushion corners from lateral impact, the choice of 18K alloys balances ductility for precision work with long term resistance to wear. At The Natural Sapphire Company we present this ring as an example of how natural inclusions, exacting mixed brilliant cutting, and intentional metal contrast can be combined into a wearable, durable piece that reads as both technical and personal, please contact us for further detail on certification, hand finishing options, or to arrange a private viewing.
