Pave Padparadscha Sapphire Pendant 1.94 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

Owning a padparadscha sapphire is to possess a story so rare it is whispered among connoisseurs, and this pendant from The Natural Sapphire Company embodies that hush of exclusivity, crafted for those who seek a piece that is as singular as it is beautiful. At its heart sits a GIA certified, Pinkish Orange padparadscha sapphire weighing 1.94 carats, cut into a refined pear shape with a mixed brilliant cut that catches and returns light with a lively, dynamic fire. The stone measures 9.02 x 7.03 x 3.82 mm, displaying medium color saturation and an excellent polish, a clarity described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and most importantly, no enhancement, a distinction that affirms its natural origin in the celebrated gem fields of Ceylon, Sri Lanka. To find a padparadscha of this size, hue and untreated purity is increasingly uncommon, and this pendant is presented as a limited opportunity to claim a genuinely untouched and geological masterpiece.

The design is a study in proportion and restraint, the entire composition set in warm 18K yellow gold that complements the sapphire’s delicate pinkish orange glow. Surrounding the central gem is a halo of white round natural diamonds, accompanied by additional white round diamonds that trace the bail, together weighing approximately 0.21 carats and approximately 0.05 carats respectively, each graded clarity VS and color F and G, chosen to enhance brilliance without competing with the padparadscha’s unique tone. Expert hand setting and careful metal finishing allow each diamond and the sapphire to sit with precise alignment and secure support, the prongs and gallery engineered to maximize light return while maintaining a refined silhouette. The mixed brilliant cut of the pear shape is married to a diamond halo in a way that amplifies perceived size and depth, creating a pendant that reads both intimate and majestic, suitable for an heirloom collection or a once in a lifetime gift.

Beyond the gemological pedigree and artisan setting, the secure bail design is a defining feature that elevates both wearability and confidence, the bail engineered with reinforced shoulders and a seamless integration into the pendant frame to ensure that the piece remains steadfastly attached to your chosen chain. The bail is low profile yet robust, its interior polished to glide smoothly over a range of chain thicknesses while its external line is set with petite diamonds that mirror the halo, maintaining visual continuity without sacrificing strength. This structural attention prevents rotation, cushions the pendant against wear, and creates a stable axis so the pear shape hangs true against the décolletage, a subtle but critical detail for daily wear and for safeguarding such a rare gem. When you choose this pendant from The Natural Sapphire Company you are invited into a small circle of collectors who insist on provenance, craftsmanship and long term value, a bespoke jewel ready to be treasured, passed on, and admired for generations.
