This estate fancy sapphire engagement ring with baguette diamonds is crafted in lavish platinum, weighs 5.2g and measures 7mm wide and 7mm deep. Designed with simplicity and classical elegance, this estate fancy sapphire engagement ring exposes a significant, highly translucent 1.77ct round brilliant-cut fancy sapphire measuring 7mm in diameter, graded 'vivid burnt-orange' color and 'very good' clarity secured by gracefully elongated quatrefoil prongs. Orange varieties of fancy sapphire are amongst the most popular and at times most expensive ones, of which paparadscha meaning 'lotus flower' is a rare and highly prized variety. Mounted within a crown-shaped, pierced openwork setting, this alluring fancy orange corundum is embraced by meticulously designed 'epaulette' shoulders. The latter are adorned with 0.45cts of baguette diamonds graded I color and SI1 clarity, surmounting a curvilinear openwork gallery. These majestically arched and subtly shielded shoulders taper gracefully to merge into a sleek and spherical platinum band and an easily sizable shank.

Although often considered synonymous with the color blue, sapphires can be beautiful beyond blue, capable of displaying bright firework and sunset colors: yellow, pink, green, yellow, orange and purple all of which are referred to as 'fancy sapphires'. The pink variety of sapphire however, is known either as a ruby or pink sapphire, both belonging to the same mineral family named corundum and amongst the most beautiful and desirable colors. The most popular and at times the most expensive fancy sapphire is an orange variety with a fine pinkish undertone which has been given the poetic name 'Padparadscha' meaning 'lotus flower'' which is very rare and sells at a premium as do the prices of fine blue sapphires. Other very popular shades of fancy sapphires are yellow and bright orange, with their delicate blended shades of sunset. As a rule, the more clear and vivid the color, the more valuable the fancy sapphire, but irrespective of the color, sapphires have combined durability and beauty for generations of pleasure.
