Pave Padparadscha Sapphire Ring 2.01 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

Every gemstone begins as a quiet story written deep within the earth, and this padparadscha sapphire began its narrative in the alluvial streams and mineral rich soils of Madagascar, a place renowned for producing some of the most sought after sapphires in the world. Hand selected and C.Dunaigre certified, this pinkish orange oval shaped sapphire weighs 2.01 carats, measures 7.86 by 5.83 by 4.82 millimeters, and is fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut that captures and returns light with a warm, lively glow. Its color presents with vivid saturation that evokes the soft blush of a tropical sunrise, and under careful examination it carries a clarity grade described as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a testament to its natural origin and the gemologists who assessed it. The sapphire has undergone gentle heat treatment to enhance its stability and color, a traditional and accepted practice that helps reveal the gem s full potential while preserving its natural character, and the excellent polish on the facets allows each nuance of tone to sing when it catches the light.

From the moment this stone arrived at our bench, the focus was on honoring its singular color and ensuring the setting would protect it for a lifetime of wear, The Natural Sapphire Company translated the sapphire s story into an object that balances poetry and engineering, setting the center stone in rich 18K yellow gold that complements the padparadscha s warm hues. Surrounding the sapphire, a halo and shoulder pavé of white round natural diamonds provides contrast and brilliance, with approximately 0.36 carats in one grouping, approximately 0.216 carats in another, and approximately 0.09 carats in additional accents, all graded VS for clarity and F or G for color. Each diamond was chosen for its ability to illuminate the center stone without overpowering it, and the mixed brilliant cut of the sapphire is echoed by the round brilliant diamonds to create a cohesive, luminous composition. Our goldsmiths used time tested setting techniques and modern precision to secure every stone, seating each diamond in tight, hand cut seats and forming the gallery and shoulders to brace the center stone. The result is a ring that feels as solid as it looks beautiful, with a thoughtful balance of open space under the gallery for light to pass, and reinforced shoulders and secure bezel and milgrain or bead set edges that lock the stones into place for everyday peace of mind.
