Floral Pink Sapphire Ring 4.07 Ct., 14K Rose Gold

This ring centers a 4.07 carat AGL certified Pink to Orangy Pink oval sapphire, dimensions 9.44 by 7.18 by 6.90 millimeters, cut to a mixed brilliant faceting scheme that emphasizes both lively scintillation and saturation of hue. The mixed brilliant design marries a carefully proportioned brilliant crown with a precisely arranged pavilion, producing sharp kite and star facets on the crown that scatter light into lively flashes, while the pavilion facets are calibrated to return that light through the crown with minimal leakage. Facet junctions are sharply defined and the excellent polish on every facet plane preserves crisp light return, creating a balance between pinpoint scintillation and broad flashes of color. The stone was evaluated as eye clean at normal viewing distance, and the unenhanced, vivid color saturation is a direct consequence of both the natural material from Madagascar and the cutter's decisions to favor slightly deeper pavilion geometry to concentrate color without sacrificing brightness.

The 14 karat rose gold mounting provides a precise mechanical and optical framework for the sapphire, with a pierced gallery and prong architecture that permit unobstructed light entry into the pavilion while securing the stone with minimal metal coverage. The seat for the girdle is milled to the exact oval outline of the stone to ensure centering and to avoid point stress on the girdle. The warm tone of the rose gold complements the pink to orangy pink range of the sapphire, and the high polish finish on the band and prongs is executed to mirror the stone's lustre rather than compete with it. Attention to proportion and alignment from both lapidary and bench work is evident in the way the mixed brilliant facets harmonize with the setting to deliver consistent face up color and dynamic light performance. This piece is presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, and it is ideal for a buyer who values the technical precision of cutting and setting as much as the rarity of an unenhanced, vividly saturated Madagascar sapphire.
