Victorian Diamond and Certified No-Heat Burma Pink Sapphire Ring

About the Item

Natural, unheated Burmese pink sapphires and a halo of single-cut diamonds surround a central oval pink sapphire in this late Victorian ring. Crafted in 18K gold, the gems are set in silver atop gold, as was common in the era. The ring has strong and elegant lines; just look at its noble profile. Hand detailing abounds, from the piercing work of the gallery to the hand-carved shoulders. The oval pink sapphire in the center is secured with no less than 15 elegant prongs. Neither the diamonds nor the pink sapphires are huge but their impact certainly is: the central sapphire measures 5.88mm x 4.21mm and weighs approximately .75 carats. The 16 additional sapphires weigh approximately .75 carats as well for a total of 1.50 carats. The diamonds are old single-cut stones and total at least .25 carats. The face measures 18.5mm north to south and 16.25 west to east. This beautifully-made ring is currently a size 6 ¾ and could be resized by your local jeweler. There is no maker's mark but there is a metal fineness mark of 18K. Most likely American in origin and dating from right around 1900. Thie ring ships with a certificate from Stone Group Labs stating that the pink sapphires are unheated and from Burma (Myanmar).

Sapphire 4.04 Carat AGL Certified No-Heat Madagascar Origin, Eye-Clean, Mounted
Located in Southbury, CT
A cushion-shaped, mixed-cut, eye-clean 4.04 unheated royal blue sapphire from Madagascar is the discussion here. The included AGL "Prestige Gemstone Report" concludes that the sapphire has an origin of Madagascar, no "clarity enhancement," and no indications of heating. For many, this Royal blue is the ideal tone for a sapphire. It is the same regal blue seen on the finger of the Princess of Wales. Unheated sapphires with an interior as clean as this stone, and with such a fine, even tone are exceedingly rare and highly valuable. As I write these words in the early days of 2024, A heated sapphire of 4.09 carats with a Sri Lanka origin is currently being offered for sale at a natural sapphire company...
