Antique Style Violet Sapphire Ring 3.54 Ct., 14K White Gold

This cushion shape violet sapphire is a rare statement piece offered by The Natural Sapphire Company, a jewel born from the mineral riches of Madagascar. At 3.54 carats and measuring 10.33 x 8.03 x 4.32 mm, this transparent gem commands attention while remaining refined and wearable. What sets this stone apart is its completely natural state, with no enhancement, a clarity grade of very slightly included as evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish that allows its subtle violet tone to sing rather than shout. Light color saturation gives the sapphire a delicate, sophisticated presence, a hue that feels personal and elusive, an invitation to join an exclusive circle of collectors who value provenance and purity above all else. This is not a mass produced ornament, it is a singular treasure, cut and set to celebrate its natural origin and to honor the discerning few who understand that true rarity is defined by authenticity, craftsmanship, and the confidence to wear something uniquely beautiful.

The mixed brilliant cut of the cushion shape is the design decision that transforms this sapphire from pretty to transcendent, the secret behind its exceptional interplay of fire and brilliance. Combining the depth preserving properties of step facets with the scintillating return of brilliant facets, the cutter has fashioned a pavilion and crown geometry that maximizes internal reflection while maintaining the gem’s natural color harmony. The proportions, with a substantial yet elegant depth of 4.32 mm and a generous table plane, are calibrated so that light enters, disperses into subtle flashes of violet and white, and is returned to the eye with lively scintillation and broad, luminous flashes. Facet junctions are executed with precision and the excellent polish ensures minimal light scatter, so every movement of the hand turns the stone into a private display of brilliance. Because the stone is transparent and eye clean at normal viewing distance, those internal reflections are uninterrupted, creating a sensation of depth and life within the sapphire that is both modern and timeless.

Flanking this exceptional center stone are a carefully graduated array of white baguette shaped natural diamonds, set to amplify the center sapphire’s linear and luminous qualities. The side diamonds weigh approximately 0.40 carats in total for the more substantial baguettes, 0.16 carats for the mid sizes, and 0.10 carats for the smallest accents, each stone graded Very Slightly Included VS1, VS2 with a crisp color grade of F. Their straight, architectural profile provides a sophisticated contrast to the cushion silhouette, and their step like facets reflect light in broad ribbons, reinforcing the sapphire’s own mixed cutting style. The placement and scale of the baguettes were chosen to lead the eye toward the center, to create a framed tableau in which the sapphire is the undisputed protagonist. Set entirely in 14K white gold, the metal’s bright, reflective surface elevates the perceived whiteness of the diamonds, and the clean lines of the mounting allow the gems to breathe and to interact with ambient light from multiple angles.

Owning this ring means more than possessing a beautiful jewel, it means entering a selective tradition of collectors and connoisseurs who prize natural origin, expert cutting, and thoughtful design. Presented by The Natural Sapphire Company, this piece is limited by the singular nature of its center gem, a one of a kind sapphire from Madagascar that has been left in its untouched state to display the fullest expression of its color and character. The overall effect is refined, rare, and unmistakably crafted for someone who understands the value of subtlety, the power of precision cutting, and the quiet confidence of a piece that is both an investment and a legacy. For those who seek a ring that combines luminous brilliance, architectural elegance, and true rarity, this cushion violet sapphire with its complementary baguette diamonds offers a private luxury that will only grow in meaning with each wear.
