Sapphire - Emerald Cut - 1.55ct
This natural parti sapphire is a 1.55-carat emerald cut, worked in the step-cut style that shows off long, clean facets. It measures 8.3 by 5.1mm and comes from the gem gravels of Nivithigala, in Sri Lanka's Ratnapura region. A parti sapphire carries more than one color in a single crystal, and this one blends blue and yellow across the same gem, so the hue shifts as the light moves. At Mohs 9, sapphire sits second only to diamond in hardness, which makes it a confident choice for a ring worn every day. The visible price is $1,860.
Bohemi does not sell loose stones on their own. Each stone is set into an engagement ring or built into a custom project designed with you, so this sapphire becomes the center of a finished piece rather than a gem in a box. Heather and her team hand-set every stone at the Bohemi studio in Boulder, Colorado, and this sapphire pairs naturally with the Harlow setting or a one-of-a-kind custom commission.
