These mines are no longer operational, making this a truly rare find.The Sapphire is beyond words!! A NATURAL, NO HEAT in beautiful ROYAL BLUE, transparent, bright, richly saturated, luscious color, often compared to the highly sought-after Kashmir sapphires. Its exceptional saturation and the fact that it's unheated (placing it among the top 1% of all sapphires) further elevate its value.Pailin sapphires were once highly prized for their purity and intensity of color, rivaling even Burmese and Ceylonese stones. Its Cambodian origin from the famed Pailin mines adds another layer of rarity and historical significance. ** It is a truly an investment gem, accompanied by a recent GIA #2235403802 certificate stating: The Natural Sapphire, Royal Blue color with No indications of Heating. In the world of Sapphires, Kashmir sapphire (the rarest and most coveted) is the color to desire. This natural, unheated Sapphire in this delightful antique Ring originated from Pailin, Cambodia is close runner up! Mesmerizing like the deep drop of blue ocean center sapphire radiates from an almost equally stunning the most classic Victorian diamond cluster ring.There are 8 sparkly old European and old Mine cut diamonds surrounding the center on hand wrought prongs, and further 1 diamond on the each shoulder of the ring. Total 10 diamond weight is approx. 1.24ctw, G-H color, VS-SI clarity over all.The top measures 13mm in diameter, and the height is 5.43mm. This DIAMOND ring is hand crafted in 14k GOLD (tested).The band tapers down from 3.36 to 1.68 on the bottom. The ring is a size 5 1/4( sizable), weighs 3.33grams. Condition: Great, Great condition.. Overall light wear to the mount, small surface scratches and minor antique patina in keeping with general wear. All diamonds are present and appear original. Some small bruising on the diamonds and one tiny chip on one, hardly visible. Diamonds are bright and well matched. Given the ring's age and condition, just very minor sign of wear on the crown in a form of slight abrading of the sapphire, we think that it was staying in one family without being sold and re-sold.*** Since we list antique and vintage items we try to make sure to identify any issues.
