Three Stone Green Sapphire Ring 1.79 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

The focal element of this ring is a 1.79 carat cushion shaped green sapphire, precisely measured at 8.23 x 6.42 x 3.55 millimeters and fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut to combine the scintillation of modern brilliant faceting with the soft, pillowy outline traditional to the cushion form. The mixed brilliant faceting pattern places a larger, well proportioned table and a crown arrangement that maximizes face up brightness, while the pavilion is cut with optimized angles to enhance internal reflection and to return light through the crown rather than through the pavilion. At eye level the sapphire is graded as eye clean, indicating that inclusions are either absent or not visible without magnification, and the excellent polish ensures facet junctions are sharp and reflective, with minimal surface disturbance to interfere with light performance. The green hue in this specimen exhibits medium color saturation, producing a clear, lively tone that reads as a true, vivid green under daylight balanced lighting, and the combination of medium saturation with a precise cutting profile maintains strong transparency and lively windowless appearance across viewing angles.

Complementing the Ceylon sapphire are white tapered baguette lab grown diamonds totaling approximately 0.50 carats, selected for near colorlessness with a color grade of F and for strong clarity within the VS1 to VS2 range. The tapered baguette form was chosen for its ability to echo the lengthwise axis of the finger and to provide a controlled step cut contrast to the mixed brilliant center, creating a measured interplay between broad facet flashes and pinpoint scintillation. The long, tapered facets on the baguettes are aligned to the sapphire axis to preserve a cohesive light path, and the stones are set to allow lateral light to enter the girdle plane then reflect back through the crown of the center gem, enhancing perceived size and brightness. The diamond selection emphasizes uniformity in tone and finish, with clean facet polishing and consistent table proportions to ensure that the side stones do not compete with but rather augment the visual presence of the green sapphire.

The mounting is executed entirely in 18 karat yellow gold, chosen for its warm complementary contrast against the green sapphire and for the metal density that supports precise prong formation and long term structural stability. The center sapphire is secured in a low to medium profile prong crown that exposes the girdle and pavilion sufficiently to allow light to circulate freely, while the tapered baguettes are retained in a close, supportive setting that minimizes stress on the stones and maintains a balanced silhouette. The gallery is engineered with openwork to avoid blocking the pavilion, increasing back lighting and contributing to overall brilliance without compromising wearability. At The Natural Sapphire Company we source our Ceylon sapphires with a commitment to ethical mining practices, working with partners who adhere to rigorous standards on labor, environmental management, and community reinvestment, ensuring traceable supply chains and documented origin for each stone. Every piece is finished with meticulous hand setting and quality control, and we provide full documentation about origin and any gem treatments as part of the purchase process, so knowledgeable buyers can evaluate cut geometry, clarity grading, and color grade with confidence.
