Antique Style Pinkish Purple Sapphire Ring 2.03 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

From the remote alluvial pockets of Ceylon Sri Lanka, where miners have long chased the islands hidden gifts, this pinkish purple sapphire began its journey as a sliver of crystalline promise. Mined by hands that know the rivers and soil, the rough was chosen for its natural color and clarity, and then guided through the careful hands of cutters who revealed an oval form weighing 2.03 carat and measuring 8.82 by 6.33 by 4.44 millimeters. The mixed brilliant cut was selected to amplify the stones internal life, producing lively flashes while preserving the gemos medium intense saturation. At eye level this sapphire reads very very slightly included, an indication of its natural character and eye clean appearance, and it arrives to you without any enhancement, with an excellent polish that allows light to travel through every facet. Set by The Natural Sapphire Company in a finely detailed 14K yellow gold ring, the center stone is flanked by two white round diamonds weighing approximately 0.20 carat in total, graded VS1 and VS2 for clarity and E for color, which together lend a bright, cool contrast that elevates the sapphires warmth.

When you place this ring beside more famous or widely publicized pieces, its virtues become clear, because rarity is not defined by publicity but by nature and treatment. Many well known sapphire rings achieve color through heat treatment, and while that process can create beautiful results, an unheated Ceylon sapphire of this size and transparency carries an authenticity that collectors prize. In terms of visual presence and polish, this gem rivals sapphires seen in high profile collections, offering a transparent, saturated hue and crisp facet work that allow it to sit confidently beside those stones without needing a storied provenance. The diamonds on the shoulders provide the classic framing often sought in iconic designs, while the warm 14K yellow gold setting and hand engraved details give the ring a timeless personality. At The Natural Sapphire Company we honor the stones origin and the artisans craft, and this ring represents a meeting of responsible sourcing, meticulous cutting, and thoughtful design, a piece that tells the story of place and craft each time it is worn.
