Pave Peach Sapphire Ring 3.06 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a transparent 3.06 carat oval peach sapphire, measuring 9.81 x 7.67 x 4.89 millimeters, with a mixed brilliant cut that balances sparkle and face up presence. The sapphire is graded very slightly included at eye level, displaying very light color saturation and an excellent polish, and it is untreated, with origin traced to Madagascar. The design is complemented by natural white round diamonds, including accents totaling approximately 0.128 carats with clarity VS and color F/G, and additional rounds totaling approximately 0.48 carats with the same clarity and color grades. The center sapphire is held in a secure four prong setting, while the band features tightly set round diamonds that extend along the shoulders, all mounted in 14K yellow gold. The Natural Sapphire Company stamped specifications are reflected in the selection of stones, proportions, and craftsmanship.

The construction and choice of materials prioritize daily wearability and long term durability. Sapphire rates nine on the Mohs hardness scale, offering strong resistance to scratches and abrasion, and the mixed brilliant cut preserves durability through balanced faceting and robust girdle proportions. Natural diamonds used as accent stones provide the hardest known material for supplementary durability, and the 14K yellow gold alloy selected for the mounting increases toughness compared to higher karat alloys, improving resistance to deformation from routine wear. The four prong setting and supportive gallery are engineered to secure the oval center stone while allowing light performance, and the channel like pavé setting style for the shoulder diamonds reduces exposed edges and the likelihood of catching. Routine care is straightforward, warm water, mild detergent, and a soft brush will maintain appearance, and periodic professional inspection of prongs and settings is recommended to ensure long term security. This combination of a durable natural Madagascar sapphire, quality natural diamonds, and a robust 14K yellow gold mounting results in a ring that is suitable for daily wear, while retaining the refined presence expected from The Natural Sapphire Company.
