Description: This listing is for a single-row, shared prong design ring with a center round natural purple sapphire and 10 round, full brilliant cut natural diamonds. The sapphire measures 4.5 - 4.6 mm in diameter and weighs 0.45 carat. This gemstone is well cut and exhibits a vibrant reddish-purple color. It is not entirely eye clean in clarity with some noticeable internal inclusions; but it is still a very pleasing, richly colored gem! This gemstone is a Fair Trade Gem from Columbia Gem House and is accompanied by a CGH Certificate of Authenticity. This rare natural purple sapphire was sold to us by Columbia Gem House as untreated and unenhanced, and my personal examination of the gem supports this claim. So, what exactly is a fair trade gem? The concept is simple. Gemstones are mined in a sustainable manner with minimal impact to the environment. Miners and cutters of the gems earn living wages and work in safe conditions. And when possible and appropriate, some of the proceeds of the gem sales are returned to do good humanitarian projects in areas where the gems originate. For more information visit fairtradegems.com. The diamonds have an actual combined weight of 0.24 carat. These diamonds are graded at an average of J/K color and I-2 clarity with good overall cut. The sapphire and all of the diamonds are 100% genuine, natural, untreated, and unenhanced. This ring is by a great, family-owned New York manufacturer called BB Works. Their claim to fame is that they do not cast their rings; they are tooled from solid blanks. This process creates a superior product where the molecules of the gold are packed together tighter than in a typical cast ring. The ring is fashioned in 14 karat white gold, and it weighs 1.9 grams. It is currently finger size 7 but is easily sizable by any competent jeweler. This ring is solid gold and unworn; don't be duped into buying a cheap plated silver ring or someone else's worn-out castoff! This ring was originally priced at $1,095 in our brick and mortar fine jewelry store that closed in 2020. We are offering the ring at a closeout, buy it now price of just $499.99, and we are including FREE insured priority shipping! We only have one piece of this description, so it is first come, first served! We are including a nice little gift box as shown in the images that has a nifty integrated magnetic bow. We are also including a certificate of appraisal at full retail value to assist you in getting adequate insurance coverage. The photo here is redacted due to contractual reasons, but your original certificate will be fully signed by our Master Graduate Gemologist Appraiser. As mentioned, it also comes with a Columbia Gem House Certificate of Authenticity. Please look over the information and images carefully. We are listing it with a return privilege in case we have not described something accurately, but we really don't want it back since we are now retired and are selling it at a closeout price. Honestly...please don't ask to return it for some reason already detailed or shown in this very complete listing! But be confident knowing we have had 100% positive feedback since joining eBay in 2004, and in the fact that our store stocked well-made, quality-inspected jewelry designed for problem-free wear. Thanks for looking!
