Antique Style Padparadscha Sapphire Ring 1.15 Ct., 18K White Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 1.15 carat oval padparadscha sapphire, measuring 7.09 x 5.35 x 3.27 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to optimize both scintillation and depth of color. The stone displays an intense color saturation with the characteristic warm pink orange tone associated with padparadscha sapphires, and it has been evaluated at eye level as very very slightly included. The sapphire carries an excellent polish and is untreated, with no enhancement recorded, and its origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka. The combination of precise proportions and a mixed brilliant cut delivers strong return of light while preserving the gem structure, making the center stone visually commanding yet suitable for regular wear.

The setting articulates a balanced approach to elegance and functionality, a hallmark of The Natural Sapphire Company. A halo of white round natural diamonds frames the central padparadscha, and additional white round diamonds accent the shoulders, with featured accents weighing approximately 0.16 carats and 0.072 carats respectively, both graded VS for clarity and F G for color. The halo and shoulder configuration increases perceived size and brilliance without compromising security, while the four prongs that secure the oval sapphire are positioned to protect the girdle and allow light to enter from multiple angles. The gallery incorporates openwork to reduce overall weight and to admit light beneath the pavilion, maintaining brilliance while ensuring a comfortable profile on the finger. The entire composition is executed in 18K white gold, finished to an excellent polish that complements the cool metal tones and warm sapphire hue. Overall the design delivers refined aesthetics and practical durability, suitable for both special occasions and everyday wear.
