Edwardian 15.79 Carat Natural Ceylon Sapphire Ring, circa 1910

Item #: 122AB245
Put simply, a treasure. This quite unbelievable ring features a bright and transparent blue sapphire with flashes of violet. The stone is in the most breathtaking setting; fine intricate scrolling featuring stylised heart motifs in the gallery, eight double-claws holding the stone and two small diamonds (sixteen total) between each of the claws. Filgree detailing runs down the shoulders of the ring. This is on another level. Magical.

Accompanied by a report from The Gem & Pearl Laboratory stating the sapphire is natural and unenhanced.
