The Stone

A 3.02 carat unheated pink sapphire from Sri Lanka — the world’s most historically significant sapphire source — is a stone that does not appear on the market often. Ceylon is known for soft, luminous pinks that sit in the same family as padparadscha; this sapphire belongs to that lineage.

The cushion cut combines a brilliant crown with a step-cut pavilion. Practically: the rounded corners and large facets let the pink hue bloom evenly across the face, while the brilliant crown produces the sparkle usually associated with rounds. The result is presence without busyness — a stone that reads as colour first, light second.

GIA Report #1232891350 confirms no indications of heating. Among collectors, that designation often commands two to four times the price of a heated stone of equivalent colour and clarity. It is the single most consequential value factor in a sapphire after origin.

The Setting

Six marquise-cut diamonds flank the center sapphire — F color, VS clarity, set in 14kt gold. The marquise silhouette was chosen to echo the directional geometry of the cushion: a deliberate compositional flow from center to sides rather than a generic halo. F-color diamonds against gold read exceptionally white, and that contrast is what makes the pink read more vivid than it would alone.

This is a setting designed around the sapphire — not a stock mounting the stone was dropped into.

Engagement Ring or Statement Piece

A 3.02ct natural pink sapphire with F/VS diamonds in gold doesn’t require an occasion. It works as a colored-stone engagement ring for a buyer who wants something distinct from a diamond solitaire, and equally as a right-hand cocktail ring with the visual weight to stand alone. Sapphire is 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond — meaning this ring is built for daily wear, not display.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does “unheated” mean for a pink sapphire?

Over 95% of sapphires sold today have been heat-treated to improve colour and clarity. An unheated stone has never been exposed to that process — its colour is entirely the work of geology. GIA grants a “no indications of heating” designation only when none of the diagnostic features of heat treatment are present. It is the highest-value treatment status in the sapphire trade.

Why is GIA certification important?

The GIA is the world’s most respected gemological authority. A GIA Sapphire Origin Report independently confirms three things buyers are otherwise asked to take on trust: that the stone is natural, that it has not been heated, and where it came from. This ring’s report — #1232891350 — can be verified in seconds at reportcheck.gia.edu.

Is Sri Lanka (Ceylon) origin meaningful?

Yes — and especially for pink sapphires. Ceylon is one of the few sources known for the soft, luminous pinks that collectors actively pursue. Origin is, alongside treatment status, one of the two most consequential factors in sapphire value.

Can a pink sapphire be worn as an engagement ring?

Sapphire is 9 on the Mohs hardness scale — the second hardest natural gemstone, behind only diamond. It is fully suited to everyday wear. Pink sapphire engagement rings have a long history in fine jewelry and have become an established alternative to the diamond solitaire.

Can the ring be resized?

Yes. Resizing is available on request before shipping at no charge. Contact us with your finger size and we’ll confirm timing.

What’s included with the ring?

The ring ships in a Treasured & Co. presentation box with the original GIA Sapphire Origin Report and a certificate of authenticity. Free insured shipping is included.
