Description
Make a bold statement with this striking vintage 9ct yellow gold colour-change sapphire ring, showcasing a captivating 13mm round synthetic sapphire that transforms beautifully between rich amethyst purple and vibrant royal blue depending on the light. Crafted in a substantial 9ct gold setting weighing an impressive 9.4 grams, this is a classic mid-century style dress ring designed to stand out.
The large faceted synthetic sapphire displays exceptional brilliance, with its remarkable colour-shifting properties creating an ever-changing display of violet, purple and blue hues under natural daylight, indoor lighting and incandescent light. The substantial gold mount features an elegant stepped Art Deco-inspired shoulder design that perfectly frames the impressive centre stone while offering excellent protection for everyday wear.
Synthetic sapphires of this quality were highly prized throughout the mid-20th century for their exceptional clarity, vivid colour and durability. Chemically identical to natural sapphire, they possess the same hardness (9 on the Mohs scale), making them an excellent choice for those seeking both beauty and practicality.
Whether worn as a bold cocktail ring, an alternative engagement ring, a birthstone piece for September, or simply as a unique addition to a vintage jewellery collection, this timeless piece is certain to attract compliments.
