Floral Padparadscha Sapphire Ring 3.16 Ct., 14K Rose Gold

This ring centers on a rare, C.Dunaigre certified Orangy Pink padparadscha sapphire weighing 3.16 carats, sized 8.22 x 7.34 x 5.51 mm, with a cushion shape and a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes fire and scintillation. The stone displays intense color saturation and an excellent polish, clarity grade very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, and importantly no enhancement, qualities that distinguish it from many market alternatives that are often heat treated or clarity enhanced. Compared to other padparadscha offerings this gem stands out for its natural, untreated hue from Ceylon Sri Lanka, its generous carat weight, and its precision cutting that yields exceptional brilliance despite the warm orangy pink body color. The setting in 14K rose gold complements the sapphire with a warm metal tone that deepens the pink facets, creating a balanced, modern look that remains timeless, and the minimalist yet secure mounting emphasizes the gemstone while offering durable daily wear that outperforms thinner or less thoughtful mounting styles commonly seen in mass market pieces.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we pair this extraordinary gem quality with ethical sourcing practices to offer both beauty and conscience, the sapphire is sourced from responsible miners in Sri Lanka who adhere to strict environmental protections, fair labor standards, and community development initiatives, and full traceability is maintained from mine to market to ensure transparency and integrity that many other vendors cannot verify. This combination of superior gem quality, certification, untreated natural color, expert cutting, and ethical mining makes this ring an investment in rarity and responsibility, delivering greater long term value than treated or uncertified stones that may lack provenance and resale appeal. For customers seeking a padparadscha that is both visually exceptional and ethically sourced, this 3.16 carat cushion sapphire in 14K rose gold represents a conclusive choice, offering a unique balance of color, clarity, craftsmanship, and conscience that positions it above the ordinary options available today.
