Mined from Montana in the 1890s, and displaying the most wonderful greenish-blue to purple colour change. In daylight its a fusion of slate blue and teal green, subtly revealing its many shades and undertones when turned under the sunlight. When seen in warm incandescent light, it shifts to a deep violet colour. Theres something very mystical and whimsical about this sapphire which we are absolutely captivated by!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCushion-cut, its outline is far from perfect, but the hand-cut nature of this sapphire makes it all the more special and unique. Its set in flush in a rub-over setting, the 18ct yellow gold gently tapers to a solid D-shape shank in 18ct yellow gold. It has a charming antique patina giving it a soft and romantic appeal. The band is conforming and the profile of the ring is low, making it so comfortable to wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Natural Stones\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSapphire weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.40ct\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSapphire size: \u003c\/strong\u003eLength 8.15mm; Width 6.9mm; Depth 4.6mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGem Certification: \u003c\/strong\u003eNatural; Unheated; blue-purple colour change sapphire; Montana, USA origin; Cushion-cut; Accompanied by GCS certificate #\u003cem\u003e5785-2481\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Band\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal Composition: \u003c\/strong\u003e18ct yellow gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHallmarks: \u003c\/strong\u003eMarked with '18ct' indicating 18ct yellow gold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Ring Overall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Head Dimensions: \u003c\/strong\u003eLength 9.1mm; Width 21mm (including shoulders)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight of Setting:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.6mm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Wear \u0026amp; Condition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent: \u003c\/strong\u003eminor wear commensurate with age.
