Description
An absolutely lovely Victorian sapphire and diamond navette ring, modelled in 18ct gold. This ring is just extraordinary!
The diamonds are a very unconventional and rare deep grey and the sapphires are miss-matched, but far from diluting its beauty these quirks accentuate it.
There is no doubt that this is a hand made, one of a kind ring, not mass produced. The cut of each of the gems varies dependant on the setting.

Information about the gems found in this ring
Sapphire is the birthstone for the month of September. It is a precious gemstone and is part of the mineral corundum. Sapphire is known for its incredible lustre and stunning blue colour. The term sapphire can also be used to define any other coloured corundum as long as the colour is also noted, the one exception is ruby, which has its own name.
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend and are also the birthstone for the month of April. The name diamond comes from the ancient Greek meaning ‘unconquerable’. Diamonds are the hardest natural substance on earth, made up of nearly 100% carbon and the only thing that will scratch one is another diamond!
