14k Gold + Mixed Metals Natural Blue Sapphire Cabochon Ring. 3/4" + 12g

For sale is a very unusual natural blue sapphire cabochon ring with 14k yellow gold and mixed metals. The original ring was a very edgy mixed metal artisan ring. I had my jeweler solder an antique 14k gold ring around the outside of the sapphire. The 14k gold ring was originally part of a watch fob.

The gold band surrounding the sapphire is the only 14k gold in the ring - the band and bezel setting for the sapphire are various mixed metals. The sapphire is a domed oval cabochon with a lovely shade of blue slightly darker than ceylon. The shade of blue appears darker or lighter depending on the light. I have included photos showing the ring under artificial and natural light.

The sapphire has lovely glowing translucence and an unusual pattern of natural inclusions. The sapphire appears to have streaks of darker blue within the gemstone. The sapphire is secure in a hand-crafted (non-gold) bezel setting. The ring has an unusual mixed metal band. The split shank band is crafted from two silver-toned bands.

A gold-toned band with a beaded design is soldered to one side of the silver-toned split shank ring, creating a unique, artisan look. The ring has beautiful sapphire blue color and elegant, artistic lines.  Truly stunning!

**The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)   

Ring size:   6.75 (can be resized by your jeweler)
