Three Stone Padparadscha Sapphire Ring 1.52 Ct., 14K White Gold

This ring centers on a GRS certified Orangy Pink padparadscha sapphire, weighing 1.52 carats, cut to an oval outline with a mixed brilliant facet arrangement. The stone measures 7.37 by 5.53 by 4.29 millimetres, and the combination of transparency, intense color saturation, and an excellent polish delivers a lively face up appearance. The clarity grade is evaluated as eye clean at typical viewing distances, which means the stone presents an unblemished profile to the naked eye while retaining natural internal structure under magnification. The sapphire is heat treated, a common and accepted enhancement that optimises its hue and clarity, and its reported origin is Madagascar. The GRS certification accompanies the stone, confirming its gemological properties and the treatments applied, and it provides an independent reference for the gem specifications and provenance.

The internal features within the padparadscha sapphire contribute to its individuality and character, even as the gem retains an eye clean appearance. Under close examination with a loupe or microscope the stone reveals subtle growth features and minute crystals that record the conditions of its formation, along with fine silk and growth zoning that influence how light interacts with the colour. These microscopic inclusions can produce delicate light diffusion, softening bright facet reflections in ways that enhance the gemmatic depth and create a living quality to the orangy pink tone. In some areas the interplay between internal characteristics and the mixed brilliant facets yields a slight variation in sparkle and saturation across the table and pavilion, a trait that makes each viewing instance distinct. Because the stone has been heat treated, some inclusions show changes consistent with stabilisation and colour enhancement, yet their presence is a reminder of the sapphire s natural origin and geological history, and they do not compromise the structural integrity or overall polish of the gem.

The setting and accompanying stones are executed in platinum 950, chosen for its strength and neutral white background that complements the padparadscha hue. Flanking the centre stone are white half moon shaped natural diamonds, together weighing approximately 0.30 carats, assessed at clarity grades of VS1 and VS2 and a colour grade of F. Additional white round natural diamonds are set along the shoulders, together weighing approximately 0.33 carats, with VS clarity and a colour range of F to G. The combined accent diamond weight is approximately 0.63 carats. The half moons provide a soft transitional step from the oval centre to the shoulders, while the round stones add measured brilliance and a refined linear rhythm along the band. The platinum 950 setting is finished to a high polish and engineered to secure the gemstones while permitting light to enter from multiple angles, preserving the optical performance of the mixed brilliant cut centre stone. The Natural Sapphire Company supplies the ring with the accompanying certification for the padparadscha sapphire, and the documented gemological report allows for informed assessment of the stone s character, inclusions, and treatment history, confirming both the aesthetic appeal and the technical attributes of the piece.
