Three Stone Greenish Blue Sapphire Ring 1.48 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

When you are searching for an engagement ring that feels both rare and unquestionably right, this oval greenish blue sapphire ring from The Natural Sapphire Company answers that call. The centre stone is a transparent 1.48 carat oval sapphire, measuring 7.26 by 6.14 by 3.94 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style, with a clarity grade of very slightly included at eye level, vivid color saturation, and an excellent polish. The sapphire is untreated and originates from Madagascar, a source known for lively, natural tones. Flanking the sapphire are two white round natural diamonds totalling approximately 0.20 carats, graded VS1 and VS2 for clarity and E for color. The entire design is set in warm 14 karat yellow gold, a metal choice that enriches the greenish blue hues and adds a timeless feeling of luxury. If your priority is a distinctive centre stone that carries both presence and refined sparkle, this ring meets that need with honest gemological credentials and elegant craftsmanship.

Looking at light performance, the mixed brilliant oval cut in this sapphire brings together the best attributes of step and brilliant faceting, providing lively brilliance and controlled color display. Compared to a pure round brilliant cut, the oval shape offers a more elongated face up that appears larger for its carat weight, and it introduces a graceful profile on the finger that many clients prefer for engagement settings. Unlike a step cut, such as an emerald or baguette, which prioritizes depth of color and clarity with broad flashes of light, the mixed brilliant oval scatters light across many smaller facets, creating a balance of scintillation and fire while still preserving the stone s natural tone. For a greenish blue sapphire, this is particularly valuable, because the mixed faceting allows flashes of lighter blue and green to interplay with deeper teal zones, making the stone feel alive from every angle. The excellent polish enhances light return, so each movement sends back crisp flashes rather than dull reflections.

When you compare this mixed brilliant oval to other popular cuts and antique styles, the differences in optical personality become clear. A round brilliant will generally return the most pure white sparkle and the highest degree of symmetry in light performance, but it will not have the same elongated, vintage inspired allure that an oval provides. A cushion cut can deliver strong fire and a romantic appearance, but it tends to concentrate light into larger patches which can mute the perception of clarity in stones with natural inclusions. Antique cuts and rose cuts can offer soft, candlelight glow and period charm, however they do not match the scintillation and lively contrast of a well executed mixed brilliant. Step cuts present the sapphire s color and transparency in a window like manner, highlighting any internal features, yet they show fewer dynamic flashes. This Madagascar sapphire benefits from the mixed brilliant design because it maximizes the perception of depth and color saturation while maintaining bright, attractive sparkle, ideal for collectors who value both beauty and natural character.

Choosing this ring from The Natural Sapphire Company gives you a piece that harmonizes gem quality, setting design, and metal choice into a confident answer to both practical needs and emotional wants. The yellow gold setting warms and amplifies the greenish blue hue, the four prong elevation and open gallery allow light to enter from the pavilion and table, and the two high quality white diamonds at the shoulders enhance the centre stone s presence without overpowering it. For someone seeking an engagement ring that reads as sophisticated and unique, or for a collector who prizes untreated origins and clear provenance from Madagascar, this ring is a natural fit. If you want the brightest possible white flash, a round brilliant will excel, and if you prefer a dramatic, color forward window look, a step cut will emphasize tone, but this mixed brilliant oval gives a rare sweet spot for both.
