Description: This listing is for a hand-made, one-of-a-kind, original design ladies ring crafted in 14 karat solid white gold and featuring an asymmetrical triangular natural blue sapphire. The sapphire measures 6.7 - 5.0 x 3.2 mm with an actual weight of 0.72 carat. It exhibits a lovely violetish blue color and has very good to good clarity (completely eye-clean) and is of very good overall cut. I remember specifically buying this as a loose gem for its tanzanite-like color...but of course sapphires are MUCH harder and more durable than tanzanites are! This truly is a striking gemstone with the unique cut and gorgeous color. Most all sapphires are heat treated, and this gem almost certainly was heated, but it is a rare, genuine, natural gem. Blue sapphire is September's birthstone, but this ring is a joy to own and wear regardless of your birth month! The mounting is a true objet d'art. It was manufactured in our own award-winning small shop in southeastern Michigan by the lost wax casting process, and the original wax was hand carved. There was no CAD assistance used when making the ring, and a mold was never made of this original, so it is a unique, one-of-a-kind ring. The prongs were soldered on the finished casting individually and the bearing is also handmade; there was no use of a pre-made head. The jeweler who crafted this piece also made several award-winning pieces in various jewelry design contests. The ring is low profile and very comfortable to wear. It weighs a very hefty 6.8 grams (as we write this, over $335 in just the melt value of the gold!) and is 13.0 mm wide at the top. The ring is currently a finger size 6.25, but this is easily changeable by any competent jeweler. The ring was priced at $1,595 in our brick-and-mortar fine jewelry store that closed in 2020. We are offering it for the closeout, buy-it-now price of just $569.99, and we are including FREE insured priority shipping! We are including a nice little gift box with a nifty integrated magnetic bow. We are also including a certificate of appraisal at full retail value to assist you in obtaining adequate insurance coverage on the ring should you wish to do so. The image here is redacted for contractual reasons, but your certificate will be fully signed by our Master Graduate Gemologist Appraiser. Please look over the information and images carefully. We are listing it with a return privilege in case something is not accurate in the description, 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 because of some reason that is already clearly detailed or shown in this very complete listing! But be confident knowing that 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!
