Solitaire Green Sapphire Ring 4.24 Ct., 18K Rose Gold

This ring from The Natural Sapphire Company centers a transparent 4.24 carat radiant shape green sapphire with dimensions of 9.51 x 7.32 x 6.46 mm, the classic radiant cut combining a brilliant facet pattern with trimmed corners to balance fire and scintillation. The radiant cut used here was proportioned to maximize light return across the crown and pavilion facets, producing a lively combination of broad flash and pinpoint scintillation. The stone displays medium intense color saturation, a pure green hue with subtle yellow bias that reads vivid under daylight and showroom lighting. Clarity is graded as eye clean when evaluated at eye level, meaning no inclusions interrupt the gem face up to the unaided eye, and the excellent polish ensures facet junctions are sharp and reflect light with optical precision. Origin is Madagascar, a source known for fine colored sapphires, and the sapphire is in its natural state with no enhancement, an important attribute that preserves the material integrity and stability of the color and internal structure.

Comparing clarity to other high end rings on the market, this sapphire sits at a high tier for natural colored stones. In the colored gem trade clarity expectations differ from those for diamonds, because corundum often forms with characteristic inclusions that can affect light transmission. Many high end sapphires are heat treated to improve color and reduce the visibility of inclusions, and some stones present fine silk or pinpoint crystals that become visible under ten times magnification yet remain unobtrusive to the naked eye. This Madagascar sapphire, being eye clean, delivers transparency and even light performance more akin to the cleaner specimens that command premium pricing, and because it is untreated the eye clean clarity is particularly significant. Relative to high clarity diamonds, which are regularly presented in clarity grades such as internally flawless or very very slightly included, colored stone grading tolerates different inclusion types, however when a sapphire achieves an eye clean grade it competes very favorably in terms of face up purity and brilliance. For buyers who appreciate natural material character, this sapphire offers the rarity of unenhanced clarity combined with facet precision that translates directly into superior brilliance and contrast compared to commonly available treated stones.

The setting and craftsmanship are engineered to complement the gem optics, the band and head executed in 14K rose gold which provides a warm counterpoint to the green saturation and enhances perceived brilliance through gentle color contrast. The stone is secured in a four prong setting with a raised gallery profile that allows maximum light to enter the pavilion while protecting the trimmed corners that are intrinsic to the radiant cut geometry. The ring fabrication exhibits careful attention to symmetry and polish, the shoulders flowing into a refined bezel of support at the gallery that minimizes light obstruction and reduces the risk of snagging. Hand finishing at the prong tips and inner band ensures a comfortable wear profile and consistent lustre across all surfaces. From a maintenance perspective the untreated sapphire requires no special care beyond routine cleaning to preserve the excellent polish, and the robust hardness of corundum means the gem will retain its faceted integrity under normal wear. For clients seeking a technically refined green sapphire ring with an unenhanced stone, precise faceting, and superior face up clarity, The Natural Sapphire Company presents this piece as a rare confluence of origin, cut, and craftsmanship, and our specialists are available to provide detailed certification information and fit customization upon request.
