Three Stone Purple Sapphire Ring 1.93 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This ring centers on a beautifully transparent 1.93 carat round purple sapphire, measuring 6.81 by 6.79 by 5.12 millimeters and executed in a mixed brilliant cut to maximize both table scintillation and pavilion brilliance. Graded as very slightly included at eye level, the stone presents an eye-clean appearance to most viewers while retaining natural internal characteristics that confirm its authenticity. The color is a medium intense purple saturation that is distinctly Ceylon in character, combining lively tone with translucency and a velvety overtone typical of Sri Lankan sapphires. Importantly, this sapphire is untreated, no enhancement, a factor that elevates rarity and long-term value compared to the industry standard of heat-treated material. Excellent polish and precise facet junctions further enhance light return and the gem’s visual depth, so the 6.8 millimeter face-up diameter carries strong presence on the finger without appearing oversized. Paired on either side by natural white half-moon diamonds totaling approximately 0.30 carats, with clarity grades of VS1 and VS2 and a color grade of E, the side stones provide crisp contrast and near-colorless brightness that complements the sapphire’s purple hue while maintaining a refined, high-quality diamond standard.

The design of the ring balances elegance with functionality through considered proportions and secure, wearable architecture. Set entirely in 18K yellow gold, the warm metal choice enhances the purple tonality and offers resilient, everyday wear characteristics. The mixed brilliant cut center stone is held with a multi-prong setting that secures the gem while allowing sufficient light into the pavilion and side facets, and the half-moon diamonds are subtly recessed to protect their girdles and reduce snagging. The gallery and shoulder lines are engineered to lift the sapphire just enough for light performance without creating an unnecessarily high profile, giving a low-to-moderate silhouette that is comfortable for daily wear yet refined for formal occasions. For an educated buyer, this ring represents a combination of provenance, gemological integrity, and practical design: an untreated Ceylon sapphire of excellent polish and medium intense color, flanked by high-quality VS, E color diamonds, crafted in durable 18K yellow gold. The Natural Sapphire Company stands behind the selection and setting, offering both a gemologically transparent story and a ring that performs beautifully in everyday life.
