Description from the seller
Natural Sapphire and Diamond Wide-Band Ring | Rich Royal-Blue Hue | Family Collection
This family-kept ring centres on an oval faceted natural sapphire displaying a rich royal-blue hue. The stone’s deep blue colour reveals contrasting tones under changing light, complemented by the delicate sparkle of the surrounding diamonds.
Diamond-set leaf motifs form a sculptural floral surround, paired with a broad band featuring irregular bark-textured engraving. Elongated engraved lines, polished leaf borders and a predominantly silvery-white appearance with subtle warm undertones create a rich contrast of textures. The bold proportions and detailed floral design give the ring a distinctive presence on the hand.
The ring has a rhodium-plated surface, giving it a bright, silvery-white finish.
Total weight: 8.62 g, including the stones and mounting.
Origin and dating: Attributed to Italy; the maker has not been identified. According to family recollection, my mother received this ring as a gift around 1940.
Marks: The interior bears the numerical marks “750”, “261” and “102”, together with a worn mark that has not been conclusively identified.
Condition and alterations: The ring has undergone later alterations. The band and interior retain scratches, localised surface wear and signs of age and use. The sapphire has minor surface chips or impact marks and abrasion visible under magnification. The sapphire is slightly loose in its setting; inspection and securing by a professional jeweller are recommended before wear.
The sapphire’s rich blue colour, sculptural diamond-set leaves and broad bark-textured band give this ring its distinctive character, complemented by its history within the family.
Shipping: Due to tax considerations, shipping to Taiwan is not available for this item. The shipment will include a tracking number so that delivery progress can be monitored.
