Antique-inspired, indigo blue sapphire solitaire engagement ring

Provenance Crafted in our own wonderful workshop using traditional techniques, this beautiful ring has been thoughtfully designed to be cherished for a lifetime of love and wear. At its centre sits a natural blue sapphire, chosen for its exceptional quality and distinctive colour. Personally selected by Sam during his trip to Sri Lanka - long celebrated for producing the world’s finest sapphires - the stone has been responsibly and ethically sourced. This sapphire has such a magnificent and vibrant indigo blue tone and a gorgeous depth of colour. We absolutely love the emerald-cut of this sapphire, secured in a smooth rub-over setting, the design feels strikingly modern yet crafted and inspired by original antique rings. The setting is open-backed and the gallery features clean-cut linear work which is very refined and subtle. The shoulders are solid and flow to a solid gold D-shape shank. The yellow gold is 14ct - our favourite alloy for its durability and soft tone - and the ring has been hallmarked at Sheffield Assay Office. Inspired by antique design, we have ensured that the profile of this ring remains low on the finger to ensure it is as comfortable and practical as it is beautiful! Preserving heritage by keeping traditional techniques and tastes alive.
