A luscious Lavender Sapphire accented with tapered baguette diamonds in a handcrafted platinum ring.  The luminous color of the emerald-cut Sapphire is the perfect complement to the cool elegance of the platinum and diamonds.

The Lavender Sapphire is securely held by four platinum prongs in a double rung setting.  On the side,  two pairs of baguette diamonds are set in classic bar settings reminiscent of the Art Deco era.

Setting long, narrow baguette diamonds can be a challenge.  You want to showcase the elegant beauty and optics of the stones and make sure the diamonds are secure and well protected.  Our favorite solution is to set the diamonds slightly recessed in the shoulders of the ring with each end secured by sturdy bar settings.  The beauty of the diamonds is seen and the stones are well protected.

From the side,  you can see the slightly raised shoulders of the ring and the thickness of the band as it tapers gently towards the base.  The sturdiness of the band helps protect the gemstones and ensures lasting beauty.

Inside the ring you can see the nicely crafted under-gallery beneath the Sapphire. Also note the smooth, symmetrical cut-outs beneath the tapered baguette diamonds.  The care taken with the small,  hidden details of a jewel is the sign of a true master craftsman.

Name:  Lavender Lumiere!


Cost:  $7,650


Measurements:


The emerald-cut Lavender Sapphire weighs  3.02 carats and measures approximately 8.8 x 6.0 millimeters.  The four tapered baguette diamonds weigh a total of  0.24 carats.  They are E-F color and VVS1-VVS2 clarity.  The ring is finger size 6 1/2 and can be resized to fit most fingers.


Gemstone Note:


It is common practice for gem cutters to heat sapphires to improve their color and appearance.  You should assume that all sapphires have been heat treated unless the seller specifically guarantees otherwise.  We believe the sapphire set in this ring has been heat treated.
