Blue Star Sapphire, unheated, weighing 15 cts and Diamond Ring, Circa 1950.

About the Item

Star sapphire, unheated, weighing an estimated 15 cts by our internal gemologist, this stone is large and impressive displaying a medium blue/violet color. Accenting this center stone are 36 white brilliant cut diamonds, well matched in their cut, color and clarity, near colorless and very slightly included, (H/VS1). The total estimated diamonds weight is 1.70 cts. This vintage platinum ring is well made with an unusual fan like design on the shank leading up to the center stone. The ring is a size 7 and can be resized. Star sapphires overall will have an opalescence or velvety luster. The star in the center radiating out to the ends of the stone is caused by very small needle shaped inclusions called an asterism. When the light reflects off these tiny inclusions, one sees the star effect. We have shown this stone at different light levels. All stars are best seen in sunlight. Today, a preponderance of jewelry is machine made in large factories around the world with abundant and obvious suspicions as to its enduring qualities using not only inferior stones, but also man made stones and treated stones utilizing artificial substances. Alternatively, this distinctive vintage platinum ring possesses a large and fine natural blue sapphire. All items sold are accompanied by a detailed Statement of Value by our gemologist, as well as all original gemological documentation, if specified in the listing. As always, we guarantee all pieces to be exactly as represented. Each piece of jewelry arrives in a gift-wrapped fine presentation box. Over the decades of our stewardship as a small but exemplary purveyor of the jeweler's art, we have strived to offer a fine and authentic selection, in excellent condition, of collectible jewels from all highly sought time periods at competitive prices. In the process, we have had the extraordinary good fortune of meeting remarkable people - some collectors, others just extremely interesting individuals who have taken the time and effort to examine their lives and select things that tend to make them smile, or admire, or just wonder at the exciting endlessly creative and nuanced panoply of jeweled artifacts.
