Antique Style Green Sapphire Ring 2.03 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

A journey that began deep within the mineral rich soils of Madagascar has been refined into a wearable story of nature and craft at The Natural Sapphire Company. This ring centers on a transparent, oval shaped green sapphire weighing 2.03 carats, with dimensions of 7.61 x 6.83 x 5.03 mm, and a mixed brilliant cut that captures light with lively fire. The gem arrived from artisanal mining regions where sapphires are formed under ancient pressures and cooling processes, and it carries the quiet evidence of that origin in a vivid green saturation and a clarity grade described as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level. No enhancement has altered its natural color or clarity, so what you see is a true expression of Madagascar geology, polished to an excellent finish that allows the stone to speak with clarity and depth.

From rough crystal to the finished jewel, the sapphire was guided by master cutters who shaped its oval outline and refined its mixed brilliant facets to balance brilliance and color. The mixed brilliant cut invites light into the stone and returns it with a liveliness that emphasizes the green hue, while the polish on every facet was completed to an exacting standard so that the surface reads as clean and vibrant to the eye. The setting is entirely 14K yellow gold, chosen to warm and complement the green tones, and the band was sculpted with a detailed floral inspired motif that follows the ring in a continuous embrace. The prong head was designed to lift the sapphire gently, allowing light to enter from below while securing the gem with classic four claw prongs that are both elegant and practical, and the overall profile balances presence with everyday comfort.

Durability was central to the design, and this green sapphire is exceptionally suited to daily wear, because sapphire is a corundum with a Mohs hardness of 9, one step below diamond which rates 10, and considerably harder than many other green gems that people commonly choose. Compared to emerald, which is beautiful yet typically softer and more prone to fracture and often requires careful handling and routine treatments, this natural Madagascar sapphire offers far greater resistance to scratches and surface wear. Its very very slightly included clarity means inclusions are not visible at normal viewing distance, so the stone maintains visual integrity even under regular use, and the robust 14K yellow gold setting provides structural support that protects the girdle and pavilion from the most common knocks. For care, gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush restores brilliance, periodic inspection of the prongs will maintain security, and avoiding extreme impacts or harsh chemicals will preserve both the metal and the stone for many years.

When you choose this ring from The Natural Sapphire Company you are choosing a piece that traces a continuous line from Madagascar earth to the hands of skilled artisans, a piece that is built to be worn and admired. The combination of natural, untreated gemstone material, excellent polish, thoughtful mixed brilliant cutting, and a protective 14K yellow gold setting results in a durable, elegant ring that you can include in daily rituals, from work to celebrations, without constant worry over fragility. Our team is ready to assist with sizing, to discuss the craftsmanship that went into each step, and to provide any additional information you desire about origin or care, because we believe that understanding a gem builds an emotional bond that makes it more than an ornament, and that bond begins the moment a Madagascar sapphire is placed into a hand crafted gold setting to become a lifelong companion.
