Antique Style Greenish Blue Sapphire Ring 2.32 Ct., 10K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 2.32 carat, oval shape, greenish blue sapphire, with dimensions of 8.93 x 6.60 x 4.82 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style to optimize both color and scintillation. The mixed brilliant cut balances larger facet planes on the pavilion with smaller crown facets, allowing the dark color saturation to read deeply, while also returning lively flashes of light when the stone moves. The sapphire carries a clarity grade of Very Very Slightly Included, evaluated at eye level, which for the educated buyer translates to inclusions that are difficult to discern without magnification, preserving the gem's transparency and visual appeal. The excellent polish on the pavilion and crown surfaces enhances luster and ensures that the intensity of the Ceylon origin is presented without distraction. Ceylon, known historically for producing sapphires with rich, nuanced blue to greenish blue hues and a lively internal character, contributes to the overall desirability and provenance of this gem. The combination of substantial carat weight, thoughtful mixed brilliant cutting, and an origin from Sri Lanka positions this sapphire as a collector quality stone that also performs beautifully as a wearable center for a significant ring.

Surrounding the center stone is a halo of white, round shaped lab grown diamonds, with a total approximate weight of 0.72 carats, clarity grading Very Slightly Included, graded VS1 and VS2, and a color grade of F. These lab grown diamonds offer excellent contrast against the greenish blue sapphire, creating a bright, near colorless rim that amplifies the apparent size and presence of the center gem. For an educated buyer, the VS clarity range indicates that blemishes and inclusions are minor and typically visible only under magnification, while an F color grade ensures a clean, white appearance that complements the warmth of the yellow gold. Choosing lab grown diamonds allows the purchaser to prioritize both ethical considerations and value efficiency, without compromising on optical performance. The entire composition is set in 14K yellow gold, a metal choice that provides a durable and attractive setting, and that enhances the warm undertones in the halo and the subtle greenish tinge in the sapphire. The setting workmanship, including careful prong placement and an elevated gallery to permit light to enter from the pavilion, together with the excellent polish on the metal, ensures long term wearability and secure gemstone retention.
