Madagascar Sapphire Diamond Stackable Ring | 14K Yellow Gold 0.50 ct tw
Treasured & Co.®Madagascar Sapphire Diamond Stackable Ring | 14K Yellow Gold 0.50 ct tw
This ring centers a 0.40 ct oval Madagascar sapphire - sourced specifically from the Ilakaka and Andilamena regions, which since the late 1990s have produced some of the most prized commercial blue sapphires on the market. The center stone is paired with a 0.10 ct round brilliant diamond and set in 14K yellow gold for a 0.50 ct total carat weight.
The petite scale of this ring suits stacking with thin gold bands or wearing as a delicate sapphire engagement ring. Available in sizes 5 through 9, this is a Treasured and Co. origin-named piece - meaning the sapphire's geographic source is verified and disclosed, which most generic 'blue sapphire' rings cannot offer.
Why Madagascar sapphires matter
Sapphire origin affects both price and provenance value. Historically, the most desirable origins have been Kashmir (effectively unavailable in commercial quantities since the early 20th century), Burma/Myanmar, and Ceylon/Sri Lanka. Madagascar entered the market significantly in 1998 when major deposits were found in Ilakaka, and has since become a leading commercial source for blue sapphires with strong saturation and good clarity at accessible price points. Buyers searching specifically for 'Madagascar sapphire ring' are typically looking for an origin-disclosed stone rather than an unattributed sapphire of similar appearance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the sapphire origin verified?
Yes. This is a Madagascar sapphire, sourced from the major Madagascar sapphire deposits. Origin-disclosed sapphires command a small premium over unattributed stones because the provenance is meaningful to collectors and to buyers who want to know exactly where their sapphire came from.
Is this an engagement ring?
It is cross-listed under our Three Stone Engagement Rings category and works well as a sapphire engagement ring or as a stackable everyday band. The petite scale suits both uses. The breadcrumb path on the live page points to engagement rings rather than gemstone rings.
What about the diamond?
The 0.10 ct accent stone is a round brilliant cut natural diamond. Color and clarity grades are not stated on the page, but our standard practice for accent diamonds in this price tier is to source in the G-H color range with SI clarity.
How does this differ from your other small sapphire rings?
AJDGR-0068 (0.41 ct tw) and AJDGR-0039 (0.25 ct tw) are similarly scaled but use unattributed sapphires (no origin disclosure) and different design formats. This Madagascar piece is the only origin-named sapphire ring in this batch.
Does it stack well with other rings?
Yes - the petite proportions are explicitly designed for stacking with thin yellow-gold bands. The oval profile sits flat enough to layer comfortably against other rings.
