Yellow Sapphire Ring

Adjustable ring, sizes 17-23, made of 950 silver with a spectacular hand-faceted oval-cut yellow sapphire measuring 12 x 10 mm. The design is simple, highlighting the natural beauty of the stone, set with prongs to allow light to enter.

The elements that give it color are iron and titanium in blue sapphire, and vanadium in violet. Iron determines the yellow and green tones, chromium the pink color, and inclusions of rutile needles produce a silky luster. In ancient European and Indian cultures, it was considered the stone of Saturn, representing the sky, the world of angels, magic, loyalty, and friendship. In antiquity, and to some extent even into the Middle Ages, the term sapphire was generally understood to refer to what is now known as lapis lazuli.

Origin: Sri Lanka.
