Padparadscha is the most coveted color of Sapphire- named after the Sanskrit word meaning ‘lotus flower.’ The color is a blend of pink and orange; those from Sri Lanka are a pale peach with pink overtones, while this more intense Malagasy gem is primarily pink with an orange hue. While the definition of the color is hotly debated in the gem world, it’s our opinion that any natural Sapphire with a orange-pink tone is a Padparadscha. We set this gem in a classic and elegant setting that allows the rare Sapphire to take center stage- perfect for an alternative gemstone engagement ring.

Details: 14k white gold ring with 1.26ct Padparadscha Sapphire from Madagascar (heat only) and .06ctw Diamond accents (I1 GH).
