Three Stone Purple Sapphire Ring 3.56 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

When you are searching for an engagement ring that feels like the final answer, or a rare gemstone that will complete a carefully curated collection, this ring meets those needs with confidence. At the heart sits a transparent 3.56 carat oval purple sapphire, measuring 8.67 by 7.57 by 6.15 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to maximize both scintillation and clean windowed depth. Evaluated at eye level, the sapphire is eye clean, and it shows a light color saturation that gives a fresh and modern violet hue rather than an overly dark tone. The stone is unenhanced, with no heat or other treatments, and originates from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a source long admired for producing sapphires with lively color and strong crystallographic integrity. Excellent polish allows the pavilion and crown facets to catch light with clarity, while the oval shape and mixed brilliant cutting emphasize the gem s brilliance and make the sapphire read larger on the hand than its carat weight might suggest. For anyone seeking an engagement ring that balances everyday wearability with gemological rarity, this natural, untreated Ceylon sapphire answers that search decisively.

The surrounding design confirms that this is a ring suited to both an intimate proposal and a collector s display. Flanking the center sapphire are white half moon shaped natural diamonds, totaling approximately 0.50 carats, graded Very Slightly Included at VS1 and VS2, with an exceptional color grade of E, offering icy contrast that enhances the sapphire s violet without overpowering it. Additional white round shaped natural diamonds add approximately 0.36 carats, with clarity around VS and a color grade of F G, providing a sparkling rail of light along the shoulders and undergallery. The total diamond weight therefore sits at approximately 0.86 carats, and every accent diamond has been selected to harmonize in brightness and proportion with the central sapphire. The entire ensemble is set in 18K yellow gold, a choice that warms the purple tones and gives the ring a timeless, elegant character. The craftsmanship shows in the precise prong work and the smooth, comfortable band, making this an item you will enjoy wearing every day and admiring for a lifetime.

When you compare this sapphire to the gemstones seen in more famous rings, the distinctions become part of the appeal rather than a compromise. Many well known pieces achieve their signature look through dramatic color treatments or through stones from legendary, but heavily depleted, sources. This Ceylon sapphire offers the best of both worlds, rarity and reliability, because it is naturally unenhanced, with an eye clean clarity and an excellent polish that yield optical performance comparable to museum quality gems. In real world wear, the mixed brilliant cut here produces the dispersion and fire you expect from high end sapphires, while the oval proportions maintain a regal presence without appearing ostentatious. For collectors who prize provenance and integrity, and for couples seeking a meaningful engagement ring with lasting value, this piece from The Natural Sapphire Company ends the search. If you want a ring that reads as refined as more famous examples, while offering transparent documentation of origin and treatment, this 3.56 carat purple sapphire ring is the perfect solution, combining natural rarity, superior cutting, and a classic 18K yellow gold setting that together deliver enduring beauty and confidence.
