This is a natural blue sapphire, a 1.17 carat pear cut mined in Ilakaka, Madagascar, one of the world's most important sapphire sources. It measures 8 by 5.9mm and reads as a rich, saturated blue that suits a classic pear solitaire engagement ring. At $950, it sits in the sweet spot for a colored center stone that will outlast trends, and the pear silhouette flatters the hand while making the most of every millimeter of color.

Sapphire is a 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond, so this stone is built for daily wear as a September birthstone or an everyday engagement ring center. Bohemi does not sell loose stones on their own. Each sapphire is set into an engagement ring or a custom project designed with you, and this pear works beautifully in the Olympia setting, the Arcadia Small setting, or a one-of-a-kind piece.

Heather and her team hand-set every stone in Boulder, Colorado, and you can see this sapphire in person at the studio. When you are ready, browse Bohemi's engagement rings to picture it set.
