Three Stone Green Sapphire Ring 1.29 Ct., 18K White & Yellow

Long before the ring was ever fashioned, the green sapphire at its heart began its journey deep within Madagascar, born of heat and time where mineral rich veins and shifting earth combined to concentrate color and clarity. Miners and gem seekers working those deposits find stones that speak of place through their hue, and this particular sapphire, weighing 1.29 carats and measuring 5.46 by 5.46 by 4.03 millimeters, carried an unusually transparent presence and intense color saturation that marked it as a special candidate for the asscher octagon shape. The asscher cut, with its stepped pavilion and cropped corners, was chosen to honor the gem s natural geometry while amplifying the depth of its green, and the story of the stone moves from the riverbed to the lapidary bench as a sequence of decisions made to preserve and reveal its inner light. At every stage the material was evaluated, and this sapphire was noted as very very slightly included when examined at eye level, with an excellent polish that allows each facet to act as a plane for reflection, pulling light into the center and returning it in calm, green flashes.

In the cutting studio the asscher cut was executed to bring a sense of vintage precision and modern clarity, the symmetry and proportion arranged so the octagonal silhouette sits squarely within its bezel, creating a quiet architecture of light. The heat treatment applied to the sapphire is a time honored technique used to enhance and stabilize the intense color, and in this case it intensified the stone s natural green while preserving the transparency that makes light travel through the gem like a clear pool. The result is an asscher cut that displays stepped facets like a series of miniature terraces, each plane revealing subtle shifts in tone as the ring moves, and because the polish achieved is excellent, those shifts are sharp and clean rather than soft and diffuse. The gem s clarity, being very very slightly included at eye level, means the stone reads as clean and open to the observer, and those tiny internal markers only add to the gemstone s individuality rather than distract from its overall clarity and brilliance.

The ring s design balances elegance with functionality in ways that are deliberate and rooted in practical wearability, the bezel setting embracing the asscher octagon in 14K white gold to protect the cropped corners and to provide a bright, neutral frame that complements the green rather than competing with it. Flanking the central sapphire on either shoulder, two white round natural diamonds weigh approximately 0.027 carats each, carrying clarity grades of Very Slightly Included in ranges VS1 and VS2, and a color grade of F, their icy sparkle acting as tiny bridges between the white gold bezel and the warm yellow gold band. The use of both 14K white gold and 14K yellow gold is not merely aesthetic, it is purposeful, placing the stronger, light enhancing white gold where the stones are set, and reserving the inviting, classic tone of yellow gold for the shank where it meets the skin. This combination creates a ring that reads as refined and contemporary from across the room, while also feeling comfortable and secure on the finger, the low profile bezel reducing the risk of snagging and the thoughtfully contoured shoulders allowing the piece to sit flush with everyday activity.
