Three Stone Greenish Blue Sapphire Ring 1.50 Ct., 14K White Gold

This ring begins its story far from the jeweler s bench, in the rugged highlands of Madagascar where our gem scouts at The Natural Sapphire Company sought out a rare greenish blue sapphire, untouched by enhancement. The stone is a transparent 1.50 carat emerald cut sapphire, measuring 6.78 by 4.99 by 4.61 millimeters, with a clarity graded as very slightly included at eye level, intense color saturation, and an excellent polish that reveals the stone s natural depth and velvety glow. Each facet was oriented by a master cutter to maximize the sapphire s color and light return, producing a calm, step cut flash that changes from teal to ocean blue as the hand moves. Flanking the center are white trapezoid shaped lab grown diamonds weighing approximately 0.70 carats in total, with clarity grades Very Slightly Included VS1 and VS2, and a color grade of E, chosen to complement the sapphire s tone without overpowering its presence. The entire composition is set in platinum 950, the metal chosen for its purity and enduring white sheen, with every angle, gallery detail, and stone seat hand finished to create a piece that feels inevitable, as if the stones themselves dictated the ring s final form.

When it comes to durability, this design offers advantages over many similar rings on the market. Sapphire rates a nine on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond, which means this emerald cut sapphire is highly resistant to scratches during everyday wear, and because this stone is unenhanced and well cut, it also resists chipping when properly protected. The choice of platinum 950 provides a strong, dense mounting that secures the stones without the thin prongs or open baskets often seen in alternative designs in softer metals. Unlike high set or claw based three stone rings that leave corners and edges exposed, this ring s stepped bezel like shoulders and geometric settings shelter the sapphire s corners and hold the trapezoid diamonds flush, reducing the risk of catch and impact. Lab grown diamonds are harder still, and their trapezoid shape set securely at the shoulders further stabilizes the center stone. Compared to similar pieces in 18 karat gold or with pavé halos, this platinum set design will show wear differently, displacing metal rather than losing it, and it requires only routine inspections to maintain its integrity and brilliance, making it an excellent choice for someone seeking beauty combined with long term durability.
