Antique Style Green Sapphire Ring 1.42 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

Imagine slipping on a ring that feels like a secret shared between you and the horizon, a memory that catches sunlight and keeps it just for you. This ring from The Natural Sapphire Company features a transparent 1.42 carat cushion shape green sapphire, measuring 7.31 x 5.43 x 4.30 mm, with a mixed brilliant cut that sings with life. The stone has a clarity grade of very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and a medium intense color saturation that reads as a soft, verdant glow rather than a shout of color. Heat treated to enhance stability and depth, and hand finished to an excellent polish, the sapphire sits in a warm 14K yellow gold setting that amplifies the green tones, creating an intimate, timeless look. Wearing it feels like carrying a Montana sunset, a gentle, steadfast presence that brings joy every time your hand moves, a perfect gift for vows, anniversaries, or a beautiful way to celebrate love and milestones.

From the perspective of light performance, the cushion mixed brilliant cut offers a uniquely expressive experience, blending the best qualities of classic shapes. The mixed brilliant pavilion returns light with lively scintillation similar to a round brilliant, producing lively flashes and playful sparkle that dance across the stone. At the same time the cushion outline and slightly larger facets allow the green to pool and glow, giving more depth and a softer, romantic shimmer than a pure round brilliant. Compared to step cuts such as emerald or asscher, which emphasize broad flashes and depth of color but offer less scintillation, this cushion mixed brilliant strikes an elegant balance, showing color richness and ongoing sparkle together. When compared to a full brilliant round, the cushion will read slightly more vintage and colored, trading the rounds maximum fire for a deeper color saturation and a pillow like silhouette that flatters the finger. The very slightly included clarity means light moves through the stone without interruption, so brilliance and fire remain lively, while the excellent polish ensures every facet returns light cleanly. The result is a ring that feels alive, a piece that catches glances and holds them, crafted with the care and expertise you expect from The Natural Sapphire Company, a treasure that will make every moment feel more luminous.
