Deco Teal Montana Sapphire Engagement Ring

Teal Sapphires make excellent engagement rings since the blue-green color combo is a neutral that goes with anything in your wardrobe. Teal Sapphires only occur due to a delicate blending of blue, yellow, and grey color bands within the gem, which meld together to produce this coveted color. This particular gem is a Montana Sapphire which is a rare American source known for teal gems of varying tones. This gem appears a different shade depending on the lighting; indoors the green is more prominent, whereas outdoors the blue is more prominent (attached photos show the gem in both lighting conditions). We set this Sapphire in an original Art Deco white gold filigree mounting which features floral “orange blossom” accents on the shank and filigree work on top. Wow!

Details: 18k white gold ring with 5.5mm round .80ct teal Sapphire (Montana origin, thermal enhancement only), mounting circa 1925.
