Three Stone Yellowish Green Sapphire Ring 1.23 Ct., 10K Yellow Gold

This ring centers a 1.23 carat asscher octagon sapphire, precise dimensions 6.02 x 5.90 x 3.72 mm, cut in a classic asscher faceting style that emphasizes broad step facets and a pronounced table. The asscher geometry produces broad, mirror like flashes and a controlled return of light, a characteristic that complements the stone s intense yellowish green hue. With eye clean clarity evaluated at eye level and excellent polish, the pavilion depth of approximately 62.4 percent yields balanced light performance without excessive leakage, allowing the intense color saturation to present uniformly through the crown and table. Originating from Madagascar, this sapphire s natural chroma and clarity call for minimal enhancement, requiring only exacting faceting and surface finishing to reveal its full optical potential rather than heavy post treatment.

Flanking the center are white tapered baguette lab grown diamonds totaling approximately 0.20 carats, selected for their clean step facet architecture that harmonizes with the asscher cut. Each baguette is calibrated to sit flush within the shoulders, their elongated rectangular facets producing linear flashes that complement the asscher s concentric light pattern, while their Very Slightly Included grades VS1 and VS2 ensure minimal interference with light performance. The F color grade of these diamonds provides crisp contrast against the yellowish green sapphire and the warm field of 18K yellow gold, while the tapered profile contributes to a refined silhouette and smooth visual transition from center stone to band.

Craftsmanship is executed in solid 18K yellow gold, employing a four prong center setting and integrated tapered baguette collets that secure the stones while maintaining an open pavilion for optimal light entry. The metal work is hand finished to an excellent polish, the prong heads precisely burnished to hold the sapphire without obscuring its table, and the gallery engineered for structural integrity and comfortable wear. At The Natural Sapphire Company we emphasize that this ring s visual impact is driven by the gemstone s intrinsic quality, and minimal enhancement beyond expert cutting and finishing was required to achieve the finished piece, preserving the natural character and provenance of the Madagascar sapphire.
