Solitaire Pink Sapphire Ring 2.51 Ct., Platinum 950

This ring centres a transparent 2.51 carat cushion shape pink sapphire, precisely proportioned at 8.51 by 6.95 by 4.47 millimetres, cut in a mixed brilliant style to harmonise colour saturation with optimal light return. The mixed brilliant cut combines a faceted brilliant crown with tailored pavilion faceting, producing a balance of scintillation and broad flash while preserving the stone s vivid pink hue. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and the stone displays an excellent polish that sharpens facet junctions and enhances facet contrast. Colour is described as vivid in saturation with a medium to strong tone that is characteristic of quality Ceylon material, the origin being Sri Lanka. Enhancement by controlled heat treatment has been applied to stabilise and intensify the natural colour, a standard and accepted practice that improves translucency while retaining the gem s integrity. The pavilion depth and crown angles have been selected to complement the sapphire s table and overall dimensions, resulting in a lively return of light across the face and a consistent colour distribution from table edge to girdle.

The mounting is executed in platinum 950, engineered with architectural intent to echo cathedral arches and engineered bridgework, a modern interpretation of structural geometry that both frames and protects the stone. Four precision formed prongs rise from tapered shoulders that split and flow into a high but restrained gallery, creating triangular negative space that reduces visual mass while supporting the gem like a cantilevered vault. The shoulders are milled to a subtle taper to draw the eye to the pavilion while maintaining ergonomic comfort, and all surfaces are hand finished to a high mirror polish that complements the sapphire s lustre. Platinum 950 was chosen for its density and malleability, providing long term security for the prongs and resistance to wear, while offering a neutral white balance that allows the vivid pink to register without colour interference. At The Natural Sapphire Company we specify exacting tolerances in seat geometry, prong mass, and finish, allowing this ring to function as both a durable everyday object and a studied piece of architectural jewellery.
