18k White Gold 3 Ct Ceylon Blue Sapphire & Diamond Ring. Emerald Cut

For sale is a 18k white gold ring with an emerald cut blue sapphire and natural mine-cut diamonds.  This antique ring is solid 18k - it does not have a silver top like many similar rings.  All of the metal in the ring tests as 18k gold.  The ring is set with a large emerald-cut blue sapphire that is bezel-set in white gold.  This sapphire is translucent with wonderful ceylon blue color.  This is an antique sapphire that was hand-cut by the jeweler.  The color of the sapphire is not perfectly even.  To my eye, it appears slightly lighter blue on one side than the other.  The sapphire also has natural inclusions and imperfections, including what appears as a black "dot" on one corner of the gemstone.  The sapphire does not have any cracks or chips.  The central sapphire is surrounded by a halo of small round diamonds, each invisibly set in a small triangle of white gold with milgrain edging.  All the diamonds are mine-cut.  The edges of the halo are scalloped and have delicate milgrain edging.  This is simply a stunning, beautifully crafted antique sapphire ring.  It would make a fabulous engagement ring, or simply a lovely ring for no special reason.  It can be easily resized by your jeweler.

**The antique sapphire has natural inclusions.  Please see magnified photos on the ruler for the most accurate view.

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

Ring size:  7.75
