Blue sapphire and diamond engagement rings in 18ct yellow gold, handmade to order by our family workshop in the Cotswolds, with a blue sapphire centre stone framed by white diamonds. Blue sapphire is corundum, 9 on the hardness scale and second only to diamond, so it wears well every day. 18ct yellow gold has the rich, warm colour of traditional gold, and the colour runs right through the metal, so it never wears off.
About blue sapphire
Blue sapphire is corundum, 9 on the hardness scale and second only to diamond, so it wears well every day. Its deep blue is the classic engagement gemstone. In these rings it is set with white diamonds, which make its colour look even richer.
Why 18ct yellow gold?
18ct yellow gold is 75% pure gold, with the deep, warm colour people picture when they think of a gold ring. It is not plated, so the colour never fades. Some of our yellow gold designs hold the diamond in a white platinum head, so the stone looks as white as possible while the band stays golden. Yellow gold also flatters a slightly warmer diamond, so a stone in the H to J colour range can look just as good as a pricier, whiter one. For a lower price, see our 9ct yellow gold engagement rings.
