Solitaire Green Sapphire Ring 1.89 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

From the mineral rich soils of Madagascar to the warm glow of a hand finished 18K yellow gold band, this pear shape green sapphire carries the story of the earth and of careful human attention, carried by The Natural Sapphire Company from rough crystal to refined jewel. Formed over millions of years in a complex dance of heat and pressure, the 1.89 carat gem was discovered for its transparent clarity and lively hue, measured precisely at 8.82 x 6.69 x 4.12 mm. Cut to a mixed brilliant style to balance fire and table brilliance, it presents a medium intense color saturation and an excellent polish that allows light to pass through and return with a fresh, verdant sparkle. Evaluated at eye level and described as very slightly included, the stone retains a lucid presence and character, and like many fine sapphires it has been gently heat treated to stabilize and enrich its tone. The journey from rough to finished gem involved careful sorting, cutting and grading, each step guided by the knowledge of gem cutters who respect the crystal habit and coax the most beautiful personality from the stone.

Set entirely in 18K yellow gold, the ring embraces a restrained elegance that recalls the raised solitaire mountings of Georgian era jewels, where the stone is given prominence and light, and the clean, uninterrupted band echoes the refined simplicity found in mid twentieth century classics, pieces admired for their focus on proportion and workmanship. The setting lifts the pear form so the mixed brilliant cut may catch light from every angle, while the warm gold complements the green sapphire with a timeless contrast, much like historical pairings of colored gems and fine metals. Finished with meticulous attention to prong geometry and seat, the ring is at once historic in its reference and modern in its comfort and durability, a practical heirloom ready to be worn every day. From mine to hand, The Natural Sapphire Company offers this ring as a narrative of place, craft and enduring beauty.
