.90ct Purple Sapphire. Sapphire is one of those gemstones which can come in many colours, and can sometimes have more than one colour in the same gemstone, when it is called “parti-coloured”. Depending to a certain extent on personal taste, some green Sapphire can garner more likes than another, differently shaded, green Sapphire. In the case of purple Sapphires, some would prefer a saturated deep purple; the above .90ct Purple Sapphire is more nuanced than that, not a deep, saturated purple but rather a lighter, brighter, more scintillating lilac, with a lot of movement following the light source.
A very attractive gemstone. Interesting how, superficially, it is almost Amethyst-like, until the gaze picks up the underlying hard Sapphire glint that the softer Amethyst Quartz gemstone cannot possess.
1.75 grams of solid 9ct Gold in the Sydney hand-making of the above ring, design simple and strong. Keeping in mind that Sapphire gemstone is second in hardness and durability only to Diamond, this ring will give great pleasure to its wearer for a very long time.
