Pave Green Sapphire Ring 3.00 Ct., 18K White Gold

This ring centers a transparent 3.00 carat pear shape yellowish green sapphire, dimensions 10.29 x 7.60 x 5.22 mm, cut to a mixed brilliant faceting scheme that marries a step influenced girdle area with a brilliant style pavilion to optimize both scintillation and depth of color, the length to width ratio of approximately 1.35 gives an elegantly elongated pear outline, clarity is graded very very slightly included at eye level which supports the stone escaping obvious surface interruptive features, intense color saturation is stable across the table and crown facets and the excellent polish enhances light return and clean facet junctions, the stone has been heat treated which is a standard and stable enhancement for sapphires, origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, and that provenance is integral to the gem's appeal because Ceylon sapphires are renowned for producing a particular clarity and vibrancy in yellowish green tones, the geological conditions of central Sri Lankan pegmatites and metamorphic deposits often yield sapphires with fine crystal structure and balanced pleochroism, collectors and connoisseurs value Ceylon origin for its consistent ability to deliver lively saturation without heaviness, and the combination of mixed brilliant faceting with a Ceylon provenance results in a stone that reads both lively and distinctly colored under varied lighting.

The mounting is executed in platinum 950 with meticulous attention to profile and symmetry, the center sapphire is secured in a classic four prong head that elevates the pavilion to maximize crown view and light interaction, the shoulders and shank carry three groups of white round natural diamonds, the outer rows consist of round diamonds weighing approximately 0.612 carats each with clarity VS and color grade F G, the inner grouping weighs approximately 0.218 carats with the same clarity and color specifications, the diamonds are matched to VS clarity to maintain clean white sparkle without visible inclusions and to F G color to ensure neutral to slightly icy white contrast against the yellowish green center, the diamonds are precision set to create a continuous double row of brilliance along the band while preserving comfort and wearability, the overall craftsmanship demonstrates controlled facet alignment, secure setting geometry and a polished finish consistent with The Natural Sapphire Company standards, this piece is designed for the informed buyer who appreciates the technical marriage of cut, origin, and setting in delivering both optical performance and provenance.
