Solitaire Purplish Pink Sapphire Ring 2.01 Ct., 18K Rose Gold

This ring features a transparent 2.01 carat heart shape purplish pink sapphire, cut to a mixed brilliant that measures 7.36 by 8.01 by 4.76 millimeters. The stone displays medium intense color saturation with an excellent polish, and its visual presence is enhanced by a precise heart outline that balances pavilion depth and table size for lively facet scintillation. The sapphire is heat treated, consistent with widely accepted trade practice for improving color uniformity and tone, and originates from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source known for producing lively, appealing pink and purplish pink material. The gem is set in a refined 18K rose gold mounting, chosen to complement and warm the purplish pink hue while providing a classic, durable setting profile that highlights the stone from multiple viewing angles. The Natural Sapphire Company appraisal and presentation emphasize accurate measurements and treatment disclosure, ensuring the ring is represented with full gemological context.

Clarity for this sapphire is graded as slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a characteristic that distinguishes it from the eye clean examples often featured in the very highest tier of sapphire rings. In the luxury sapphire market, top tier stones are frequently described as eye clean or of minimal inclusion, which eliminates visible inclusions to the unaided eye and commands a premium price. Slightly included material, as in this stone, typically contains natural internal features that may be perceptible under close inspection or at specific viewing angles, but they do not materially detract from the overall transparency, brilliance, or color saturation in normal wear. Compared with heavily included specimens that can appear clouded or opaque, this sapphire retains strong light return and visual appeal. Compared with untreated high end sapphires, which may be rarer and priced higher when also eye clean, a heat treated slightly included Ceylon sapphire offers a balanced proposition between color quality and affordability while maintaining structural stability. The mixed brilliant cut further mitigates the visual impact of minor inclusions by dispersing light across multiple facets, preserving sparkle and liveliness. For clients seeking a heart shaped sapphiric centerpiece that emphasizes vivid color and polished craftsmanship, this ring represents a considered option within the offerings of The Natural Sapphire Company, marrying notable color intensity with natural character and reliable setting quality.
