This 3.59-carat lab-created blue sapphire is a pear-shaped center stone priced at $2,400, cut in Colorado by gem artist Brett Kosnar in a geometric star fantasy cut. Lab-created sapphire is a real sapphire, chemically identical to mined sapphire and grown in a lab rather than pulled from the ground, which keeps an icy blue stone this size more accessible. It measures 13.60 by 10mm.

The star fantasy cut relies on concave precision faceting, giving even brightness that holds from many angles as the stone tilts on the hand. Because it is cut a touch shallow, it shows a larger face per carat and can sit lower and more securely in a setting. Sapphire is a 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, plenty of durability for a ring worn every day.

Bohemi does not sell loose stones on their own. Each stone is set into an engagement ring or a custom project designed with you. Heather and her team in Boulder, Colorado can pair this pear sapphire with a setting such as Arcadia or Olympia, or build something one of a kind, and you can view it in person at the Boulder studio.
