Padparadscha Sapphire & Diamond Engagement Ring

Is this sapphire pink, orange, or somewhere in between? This question has sparked debate for centuries. When we encounter a sapphire with this delicate blend of colors, we refer to it as a "padparadscha sapphire," a term derived from the Sinhalese word for "lotus blossom."

This particular ring features a large and impressive padparadscha sapphire, cut into a square cushion shape, measuring 7.5mm across. The gem exhibits greater color saturation than most, making it a highly sought-after example of its kind. Although there are moderate inclusions within the stone, they are not visible, providing evidence of the sapphire's natural origin. 

The sapphire is set in the center of an ornate ring mounting, elevated on a point, with channel-set round diamonds trailing down the shoulders and channel-set baguette diamonds concealed under the gallery. The surfaces of the ring are hand-carved, giving it a vintage feel. If you've been searching for a padparadscha engagement ring, look no further—this one is truly a knockout!
