Rare padparadscha sapphires in bespoke engagement ring settings.

Padparadscha Sapphire Engagement Rings

Mined in Sri Lanka, this is a genuine Ceylon padparadscha — the island produces the truest examples outside Sri Lanka’s historic deposits. Face-up it sits in the medium tone range: a balanced salmon-pink with a definite orange influence. In daylight it reads a softer pink-orange, under warm incandescent lighting the orange becomes more pronounced, and cool LED will push it slightly towards pink. Clarity is VVS: no inclusions visible to the naked eye, only tiny pinpoint crystals under 10x. That clarity gives clean light transmission and a lively face-up without the need for a closed-back setting. The oval cut is well proportioned for its weight, with a pleasing length-to-width ratio and good pavilion depth — you get a strong central flash and even scintillation around the shoulders, with no distracting windowing. Practical notes: padparadscha tones are warmed by 18k yellow or rose gold; platinum or white metal makes the pink side pop. For daily wear choose a low-profile four- or six-prong head with protective shoulders, or a partial bezel for extra security. Ideal for an engagement ring or a pendant where the colour can be seen from both sides.

An 18k rose gold halo ring centred by a Padparadscha Oval 1.95ct sourced from Sri Lanka. The oval is secured with four low-profile prongs and surrounded by a finely graduated micro‑pavé halo of brilliant-cut diamonds that emphasise the gem's salmon-pink and soft orange tones. The gallery is engineered to increase light return while an underbezel protects the pavilion. The shank measures 2.2mm with a subtle comfort-fit ramp for daily wear and a slight taper toward the setting to draw focus to the centre stone. Finish combines high polish on the crown with a soft satin inner face for tactile contrast. Proportions are balanced to enhance perceived size without overpowering the padparadscha's natural colour. The design prioritises secure mounting, wearable comfort and a contemporary silhouette suited to an engagement ring that celebrates the rare padparadscha hue.
