Three Stone Bluish Green Sapphire Ring 1.61 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a finely calibrated 1.61 carat oval bluish green sapphire, measured at 8.02 x 6.16 x 3.81 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant faceting style that combines a brilliant crown with a precision pavilion to maximize light return while preserving color depth. The mixed brilliant approach yields strong scintillation from the crown facets together with controlled color dispersion from the pavilion facets, resulting in a lively play of light that remains true to the stone s intense bluish green hue. Clarity is reported as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, describing an eye clean appearance with only minor inclusions visible under careful inspection that do not detract from transparency or brilliance. The stone displays intense color saturation and an excellent polish, attributes that speak to exacting lapidary work and to careful attention to facet junctions and symmetry during the cutting process. Origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, and the provenance is supported by documented sourcing and gemological analysis that confirm the geological fingerprint typical of Sri Lankan sapphires, a factor that contributes to the overall desirability and historical cachet of the gem.

Flanking the central sapphire are two white straight baguette shaped lab grown diamonds totaling approximately 0.14 carats, selected for a color grade of F and clarity grades within the Very Slightly Included range VS1 and VS2. The baguette form employs step facets that create a planar ribbon of brightness, providing a crisp geometric counterpoint to the mixed brilliant center stone and reinforcing the visual line of the mounting. The deliberate choice of slightly larger table facets in the baguettes emphasizes clarity and color neutrality, allowing the center sapphire to remain the focal point while the side stones contribute measured contrast and framework. The diamonds are proportioned to integrate with the gallery and shoulder profile so that facet alignment and optical symmetry are optimized, which enhances overall balance and avoids unwanted light leakage. The lab grown origin of the diamonds ensures consistent material quality and offers an ethically minded alternative to mined stones, with controlled production environments that guarantee the absence of conflict sourcing.

The entire composition is set in 14K yellow gold, executed with a four prong basket that secures the oval sapphire while allowing low obstruction beneath the pavilion for optimal light entry. The yellow gold choice enhances the warm undertones of the bluish green sapphire, creating a complementary color dialogue that is both classic and technically informed. The mounting exhibits a refined profile with a lightly raised cathedral gallery that provides structural support and conceals reinforcement elements without compromising light performance. Finishing techniques include meticulous prong shaping and burnishing to protect stone girdles, consistent polishing across all visible surfaces, and precise seating of the baguette diamonds to ensure flush alignment with the shoulders. The ring is manufactured with attention to internal proportions that support long term wear, including an appropriately sized shank gauge for strength and a rounded interior for comfort, while maintaining the slender exterior lines desirable in a modern solitaire with accent stones.

Ethical sourcing and traceability were prioritized at every stage of production, and The Natural Sapphire Company maintains strict procurement protocols that emphasize documented origin and supplier accountability. The Ceylon sapphire comes through channels that provide chain of custody records and independent gemological verification, and our supplier partnerships are vetted for adherence to fair labor practices and environmental stewardship that mitigate the impacts of small scale artisanal mining. The lab grown diamonds are produced in controlled facilities that eliminate many of the risks associated with traditional mining, and they are certified for origin and quality to provide transparent assurance to the purchaser. Where possible the 14K yellow gold used in the mounting is sourced from suppliers who prioritize recycled content and responsible sourcing practices, and our manufacturing processes ensure efficient material use and waste reduction. For technically minded buyers who require documentation we provide detailed gem reports, sourcing statements, and full disclosure on treatments and origin, and for buyers who wish to tailor facet proportions, setting geometry, or metal choices, The Natural Sapphire Company offers bespoke options and technical consultation to align the finished piece with performance and ethical priorities.
