Purple Sapphire Willow

Rich, regal purple is often associated with royalty.  The gorgeous Fancy Purple Sapphire set in this yellow gold and platinum ring is truly worthy of a Queen!  The intoxicating Sapphire is accented with two round brilliant-cut diamonds that sparkle and shimmer with every turn.

Crafted in 18kt yellow gold, this stately ring showcases the purple sapphire in a four-prong platinum setting with the side diamonds nestled in an open gallery along the shoulders of the band.

The shoulders of the ring are designed with an open gallery that provides a lighter appearance in spite of the rings sturdy construction and allows a fanciful play of sparkling white light and fire to dance between the diamonds, the purple sapphire and the warm hue of the yellow gold band.

The platinum setting has a "V"shape profile with a stylized willow or tulip motif on the face.  The setting rests atop an undergallery of intersecting gold arches that is reminiscent a Japanese Pagoda.

The base of the ring is slightly flattened to help minimize rolling on the finger while offering a more unusual shape.  Also note the thickness of the band throughout its circumference, ensuring the ring can be worn and enjoyed for many years.

I just love the hue of this fancy purple sapphire contrasted with the sharp white brilliance of the side diamonds. This trio of gems really catches the light and holds your attention.
